Air Arms TX200HC walnut stock

[Wryka]

I have an earlier MK2 TX200 and to be honest it has only fired about 1 tin of pellets from new ( I'm the only owner ). As I'm am getting curious and wanting to get into springers ,as seems to be a popular move lately, should I leave the gun as it is or get it serviced and upgraded at the same time by having a tune up kit fitted. In other words because the spring is older rather than worn out is this a good reason to have it changed bearing in mind I bought it about 15 years ( time flies ! ).

Hi Wryka

Most people consider the mk1 & mk2 better than the mk3 due to the shorter stroke and quicker lock time.. I wouldn't change the internals, maybe the seals but a desent clean and relube and you should be well away..

[Wryka]

Cheers for that Mark - I didn't want to go and alter things if they fine as they are, once it has had a clean and re-lube

Many thanks

I'm not touching mine until she's due a service, its unbelievably good out the box, was out doing a bit of practice on the range and I'm using a hawke hd 4-12x50 fixed objective scope combo, I shit you not...65 yard, 35mm spinner...all day long! Reckon I could do further too! Might post a vid on youtube to see how effective the accuracy is out to 60,70 and 80 yards :-)

I've got a tx .177 hc. Love it. It is heavy but worth it
I've shot a few prosports. It's strange how different they feel. Still nice though

I had a walnut stocked PS in o.177 and really couldn't get on with it even though it's the nicest looking air rifle around!

After much deliberation I treated myself to a TX200 Mk2 in 0.177 and, apart from the ABT which I have easily over-ridden, love it. So bought a TX200 Mk1 in 0.22, no ABT so no prob. Love 'em both. They still don't get as much exercise as my BrumBows though!

I had a TX 200 mk2 .22 one of the nicest air rifles I have owned extremely accurate, a real vermin stopper , I did give it a tune ie piston weight and shortened spring resulting in full power and very little recoil it also had a very smooth action , broke my heart when it fell off the back of the quad and bent the barrel so had to get rid. Have a R7 now but still miss my TX have contemplated getting another just not got round to it yet , in all was a great gun .

Really am tempted with one of these and go springer instead of pcp .!
