What’s the best way to find a specific model and calibre of airgun

[AC99]

As above but also consider joining a local airgun club who often provide a range of shooting disciplines and established members will normally provide advice on what to buy to suit your interests and they may be aware of a source of the gun you have set your mind on. These clubs also normally have a selection of 'club guns' you could try out.

What are you after?

The advice I received when I joined this forum, which has put me in good stead, is patience! Everything comes up, eventually.

Five years later, I now have a dozen but could be interested in one or two more, as and when they appear. There really is no rush.

I’ve always put a wanted ad here and elsewhere that guns change hands and they’ve eventually come up trumps for me. Another tack is to scroll thru the existing wanteds and see if anyone else was after the same as you and if they were offered one or more but passed it/them up. That has worked for me too.

As you already know it can take some time for anything to crop up but it’s always worth it in the end, sometimes more so because you’ve had to be patient in your search.

Best of luck and remember, good things come to those who wait…..👍🏻

The very first thing you do is say what you're looking for and not be so coy about it

I Don't collect so much these days but one of my dream rifles appeared the other day. Been waiting 36 years to get my hands on one and now I have. It's beening serviced at the moment but once done I'll pop pics up. Mach 1.5

If I have to wait another 36 years I’ll be 90……

I’ve tried a few times and it wasn’t posted up so I wondered if wanted adds from newbies were prohibited.

Yes they are prohibited.

The BBS is an airgunforum with a sales and wanted section added for contributing members to use --- it is not a sales site.

When someone's first post is an attempted wanted or sales advert it is normally deleted due to this rule. :-

"If you've just come here to buy and sell stuff without contributing anything to the forum, you may well be gagged and offending posts removed."



All the best Mick

Understood. Sorry.
