You'll not go wrong with a 77.
I think the budget offerings could be below your expectations.
So I have a birthday coming up real soon and I am thinking of getting another spinger. I have the following all in .177 HW95k, HW97k and a Prosport, I was thinking along the lines of a 2nd hand HW77 as all my springers have been bought that way and then tuned up. I will most likely have a walk around the Kempton Arms fayre next week as well.
So I'm looking for recommendations and have a budget of around £350.00
Thanks
Paul

Repariere nicht, was nicht kaputtist.
Go for a MK2 or MK3 77 if you can find one. Should well be in your budget of £350. Mach 1.5
I’ve got a mk2 TX200 for sale (bereavement sale thread) for that price, but a 77 is a great gun
Better to admit you walked through the wrong door than spend your life in the wrong room
Quite a few options used for £350
As mentioned the 77k and TX200 also the Walther LGU
Is your preference under lever?
As I notice you also have a HW95K if you went break barrel there’s the HW80, HW90 (if you fancy some rammer fun), HW98, HW99 plus many others like the Walther LGV, century even some Diana’s 280 etc all should be doable with that budget used but some harder to find.
Cometa Fenix 400 laminate ultra Carbine is a nice dinky 22 rifle, a bit different from your longish HW's .....very very 'handy' , always nice to have handy rifle, bit like an up to date Brum stingray / longbow, but that you can get parts for !!
Oh lifetime Gtee if you don't fiddle, and shoot very good from new
Looking for TO-6 Trigger unit unmessed with or T0-6 kit for 34

defo worth coming down to Kempton, only half an hour for you, and always a mix of modern and classic..
Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

That about sums it up for me. The rest is down to personal preference - size, weight, balance, ease of use etc.
P.S....Yes, I'm a little biased towards it, but if you have a liking for the HW77/97 platform already.....go for it. Classic, bombproof, landmark guns. Accurate and respected. It's the way my money would go.....
