    Relum Tornado auction.

    As part of Rivington Riflemens annual charity fund raising events we are auctioning, with the consent of the BBS mods, a Relum Tornado (.22).
    This rifle, owned by one of our club members (NOCITY) and has recently been serviced and is in very good condition. All monies raised will benefit a local childrens hospice and the club will pay any p & p if required.

    Shall we say the highest bidder by midnight Friday 27th August is the new owner of one of the finest classic air rifles.

    Shall we start the bidding at £25.

    I'm hoping this is going towards Derian House, but even if it's another hospice (they're all superb) it's a very kind and worthy gesture. Well done lads.

    I bid £75.00

    I'm sorry, I should have mentioned that the clubs adopted charity IS Derian House. Thank you for your very kind gesture. Come on folks. Plenty of time left for this appreciating classic piece of airgun history.

    I bid £105

    AND

    I might get Bonnie & Clyde to give it a tune, should he admit such an 'outsider' to his workbench (the gun, not me).

    As an added incentive I'm been allowed to offer honorary life membership to Rivington Riflemen, a rare incentive, to the winner of this auction.

    That sir is a very fine and, may I say, bald gesture.

    That would be brilliant. I am going to scope it up and give it a good testing at 50 yards, then we can have before and after figures for the cynics to pick over.

    Where's Ian? I need to pay for the donkey!
