    Two old technology twangy springers, and a fairly decent one. As they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder !

    My 600 without doubt.

    Its as inaccurate as hell, not very powerful, but as much fun as you can have with your trousers on !
    And it goes off with a hell of a crack too.

    Love my HW45 Blackstar. Very accurate out to 20 meters and just below the legal limit 5.5 ftlbs. It's a beautiful pistol I will never part with. Highly recommended.

    I'd like to say that my Webleys are all keepers, but the fact that my Webley pistol collection is now on its third incarnation would seem to indicate otherwise
    My Fwb 80 is one I very much doubt I'll sell.
    I've just started pushing the range on my pistol shooting and I regularly set up either a PL12 or PL14 target at 20 yards. Bigger target or not, 20 yards takes much more concentration and care than shooting at 10m. The Fwb gets used on the PL14 by virtue of the fact that it's a proper target pistol, but the surprise is that my .22 Tempest does very well on the PL12.
    The one that is a keeper beyond all doubt though is my Crosman 1300 Medalist II. I've had it since about 1978 and it was a Christmas present from my mam.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    Only own one air pistol, an Accles and Shelvoke .177 cal. Beautiful condition but I can hit Buggerall with it !

    Wouldn't part with it though as it once belonged to my father-in-law now deceased.

    Always aspired to owning a HW 45 but somehow never got round to it.

    I never really like to commit to the word keeper as I have the attention span of a gnat but my current babies are

    Alecto .20 Cal - Best pistol I have owned.
    Custom Crosman 2240 - I just gotta have a ratty here.
    Baikal Makarov - So realistic I just had to have another.

    Biggest regret is selling my Customised Tangfolio Witness, it's on my list to get another.

    Superb !

    It's not a target pistol, it's not collectable, but my hw45 is a real pleasure. Should have bought one year's ago. Definate keeper.

    I sold my webley tempest in .22 to help fund my .177 HW45 and im so glad i did its a keeper for me.
    I now want one in .22 and i know i can just buy a barrel and change it im using it as an excuse to buy the black star in .22 so i can own both kinds of grips. ( anyone with one for sale message me)
