    Good informative article Mr. Owl.
    They are excellent rifles.
    I should not have sold mine!

    Thanks.

    Sounds as though you need to keep an eye out for another!

    I feel the same about my Welham regged NJR.

    Dave Welham has been extremely helpful with my research. Fascinating bloke and great to have a cuppa and a chat with!

    Thank you-I well remember lusting after one of these-the advertising photo showed young Mickey Andrews with a pile of bunnies shot with his Shamal and I was a poor schoolboy so never achieved ownership. I hope to be righting that wrong very soon
    Never go off half cocked....

    Nice...

    I can't find a picture of my Shamal Target, which was the first PCP rifle I bought, to use for FT. That was in the early 90s.

    It was very much like the attached picture (which I found floating around on the internet, so it may be subject to copyright).

    I sold the Shamal few years later at a knockdown (pun) price, to help a young shooter get into FT... 180 quid... dammit.
