    1920’s shoot-off. Brits vs. the Germans

    I have two rifles of the same period with period aperture sights. Why not see how the two compare. The BSA Light is .177 but the Haenel Model 3 is in .22. Used Hobbys for both. My lazy backyard style with elbow on a table. The Haenel had a advantage with a very light trigger, I’m sure someone probably worked on it cause I read they were usually not that great? Bottom line I think I’ll keep both rifles! Lol

    Nice shooting.
    That top group is a bit nicer, is that the Haenel?

    Nice rifles and nice shooting. I’m guessing the top group is the BSA. Range?
