    I recall you have the fastest Phoenix in the West Dave.

    I sold mine for a greedy profit and it was a mistake.

    Mate has a Sumatra which is fun but nowhere near the gun the Phoenix is.

    I enjoyed my Career Tanker Carbine but it had to go as it was persistently naughty.

    I rang Pax today for a new price on the Phoenix. It's not cheap, but a good price for what it is, and they offered me a good deal to go with it.

    If nothing comes along in the meantime I may just save up for one.

    I've a mk2 Phoenix, a verminator, skan bullpup (the pump action one), Skan R32 and recently found a fast fire. The fast fire is the most fun. Stick a red dot on it and you have a great little tool.

    I bought direct from Pax, and good service i received, i have quite a few nice guns but i generally go for the Phoenix, mines a carbine .177 and is as accurate as any of my other guns though the HW100KT might have a slight edge if i'm honest. It is a beautiful gun i put a really big mod on it it looked awsome i gave the mod to my lad for his Stealth rifle, it was better than the HW mod at about 50mm dia and 150mm long it was a big un. Ill get i pic it does look good.

    Oh dear really tinbum Sir, I say lay aside the rat-a-tat-tat. Purchase an electrically-operated airsoft 'maschinengewehr', an M60 or something and get it out of your system.

    What you actually want to do is make a rolling-block PCP in the manner of the Shiloh or the Farquharson rifles. You could conceal the air cylinder in the butt a la the Phoenix and use a nice thick bull barrel up front to balance it out. Only make them in .25 calibre and FAC power levels of course.

    Now that would be a PCP special.

    My auto needs are catered for with my all steel Tyrex PPA-K-01! It's more the underlever thing I'm a-hankering for now.

    My mate had a FF10 with a fat stubby mod on it....it was so ugly it was beautiful, a bit like a tactical trumpet -
