The same pistol is on sale in Poland for 249PLN (Polish Zloty's) which = £48. The one in Poland is in .22

Don't you just love rip off Britain?

...and yet not love being in the EU?

Nice find.

I take it that the .177 variety could be purchased and shipped to the good old UK within the law being that they are 160 m/s (4.8ish ftlb).... that would make it very affordable.

Could be very nice indeed.

I ❤ E.U.

Perhaps you could explain to me why it's three times more expensive in the UK?

It isn't all down to profit, is it?

I wonder if it has an adjustable trigger? then it would be interesting, ...mike...

I'll explain it when someone explains to me why I can buy wood screws cheaper than pellets - same manufacturing process, similar quantities, more difficult material to form...

Ooooo.... that's a bit good.

I too wonder what trigger tinkering it can take - and how the grip is attached/being capable of being easily replaced....

66 quid shipped from Poland! Good old free market. I wonder how much airguns would go up in price if we left the EU, a remortgage on the house I think !

[coburn]

And I thought 159 was cheap but 48 is a bloody steal.

I wonder if it can converted to bulk fill as well!
