Hi Mally
Just been busy with the end of contract stuff plus family is back in UK so been spending time with them.
Yes, I have a Vulcan also. Should have a gamekeeper quite soon too.
Hopefully be at the classic thing if I can get the car sorted.

Done my bit for the BBS: http://www.airgunbbs.com/showthread....-being-a-mod-… now I’m a game-keeper turned poacher.
I knew I had missed one and a lovely gun it is too Gareth.
I have Airsporter and Diana g80 keep having a look on Henry Krank web site in the vintage air rifle section.A Dealer in Leeds who I use and I have found them super to deal with only about an hours steady drive from Manchester.Also try the meeting at Rivington riflemen this sunday a stones throw from you advertised in the collectors section of this site.If you needed directions to Henry Kranks I could do them for you as its easy enough from the M62-M621

For sheer quirkiness, add a 0.25 Bugelspanner.
The engineering is superb and they are great fun. So easy to zero the sites as well ... you can watch the pellet in flight all the way.
Other favourites: HW77 .. the older (26 yrs plus) version not modern one.
Webley Victor
Webley Service, with 3 barrels if possible (if only!)
Air Arms EX88
BSA Mod D

We could add a few more but all the above are capable of some serious fun shooting today. I still use my HW77K for HFT. My daughter uses a FWB300S for 10m shooting.
Cheers, Phil
