    So you turned it into an LGV... good choice, but would it not have been easier to just buy the LGV in the first place
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    The Century is a decent rifle & relatively cheap ,you can tell the difference between this & the 25mm LGV when side by side.Both are accurate its just easier with the LGV.

    I may one day buy an LGV, but as am soooo smitten with my Century .177 exactly as it is (imo, perfect), it will have to wait until such a purchase can be an as well as item, and not an instead of.
