The Scorpion pistol is my personal favourite.
I prefer it over my Hw45.
U.K.Neil made me a brass cocking aid,identical to the original plastic bsa one,after I sent him one to copy.
Apart from looking great,it definitely helps with shooting it accuracy wise.

How does the brass cocking aid (or any) help accuracy? Increased mass?Originally Posted by les allam
Let's face it - the Scorpion is a cut-down one-handed air rifle.

No it's not. This an oft quoted fallacy.

I didn't know the one-handed air rifle comment had been made often before. Because I came up with that comment independently it sort of proves there's some truth in it.
It's about as massive and as large as it is practical for an air pistol to be. Just abt right I'd say. Well done BSA. James Bond would argue that a PPK (which I have shot) has its advantages too. It fits in your pocket

The pistol is more stable on aim for me, with the xtra weight up front. And I have obtained better groups with my Scorpion, then with my Hw45.
I am a big fan of the Scorpion, I have 4 plus a Buccaneer in 177.

Hung like a Smurf !
I've just got my dad a boxed pair of Scorpion pistols. One in .177 and one in .22, both with all the original bits, targets, target holder ,oil bottle etc
LOOKING FOR A BSA ULTRA IN .177 and .25
Go ahead,,, String that bow
Nice. Remember not to worry about the cocking effort. Porridge for breakfast and decent protein rich dinner will build up the forearms nicely.
Others may disagree but I use mine two handed.
