    I have found that I don't need any support or bracing provided a quick, continuous stroke is used to cock the pistol.

    Royal Mail returned my .177 Turkish Tempest to the seller - so now he has to send it again!

    He put his address on the back in a corner in small print and marked it "SENDER" and my address on the front of the pack in large print.

    When it does arrive ( RM willing) I will be able to start my "back to back" testing against my old English .177 Tempest to see how they compare.

    Lets hope it is here in time for this Tuesday as I know IJ would not want to miss the event

    I am sure that with your assistance in the testing we can at least determine which one of them misses the most
