So do BSA in theory but they don't, it's all down to cost, what it really needs is a very rich shooter to buy the company who is interested more in producing a rifle than a profit, I'm damn sure if one of the guys on here won the Euro millions (the one with the massive rollover) and they bought AA, then we'd see a lot of different rifles coming out, what you've got to remember is AA started out as an engineering company with nothing to do with the gun industry, they just fell into making guns by accident to keep afloat, so their loyalty lies in making parts for guns, yes it's in their mindset to supply a top quality gun but I don't think it's in their blood, Theoben where the other way round and where willing to push the envelope in the early days but look where it got them and that's what AA are worried about.

At the end of the day, if you want a 99 sized rifle then buy a 99 and spend a bit of cash on it to get it to the spec you want, there's plenty of people who will take your money to do so and whilst they are reworking it get them to put Air Arms on the cylinder
