    I have been using South and West Country Sports at Aberkenfig Bridgend. tel 01656-743800. Nice cupper for free plenty of time for u, allways happy to order if they dont have it in stock. Ask for Phill Ash, or his Son Lee or his good Lady Tina. atb.

    keens

    Iv spent thousand s in keens over the years,when I'm trying to buy rifles, scope charging gear etc they act like my best mate. if you try striking up conversation about last nites hunt or hft comp etc they totally blow you out. Very expensive too, waste of time. Atb Ryan

    Tight Lines Ammanford.

    As above very much up and running, mainly orientated to game fishing but carry supplies for other disciplines. A great little shop run by salt of the earth types. The air gun section carries a limited stock of guns but carries plenty of accessories, good pellet selection. Obviously you stock what you sell. But they will get you whatever you need. Always good for a chat help and advice. Have carried out repairs to. This shop has loads of potential and if more people made use of it then it would only get better. It,s a case of use it or lose it!.

    Neath Gun Shop

    Wherer about is the neath gun shop?
    Does he have an internet shop or?
    Im looking to purchase a new .177 for lamping, I called in Keens and they stood up to their reputation didnt like the service or the prices of goods so am looking to get the gun from elsewhere.

    If anyone could recommend a good, powerful .177 with sights etc for £350 max it would be greatly appreciated.

    Might be a bit late, but Try Arthur Bale in Cathays friendly good knowledge of airguns have some stock but can order in if not in stock and are competitive good range of pellets and extras as well.

    Might get a deal on a TX200 or HW95 with scope in budget

    You cant get friendlier, more knowledgeable staff.

    They dont keep a huge range in but can order anything and always do a great deal, I ve bought my Scorpion and HW95K from them.

    Been really good reading this thread. bought my first feinwerkbau 124 for Arther bale in Cardiff 25 years ago. Was good then glad he still going strong. Its also answered a few of the questions i have been meaning to ask. Now live closer to the end of the M4 up west towards Carmarthenshire. bought a falcon raptor a few years back from Field and Target sports in pembroke dock. anyone now if thses are still trading or in A1 guns my closet and Neath highly recommended as my best gun shops now locally.

    thanks and hello to everyone.
