    It's an Air arms tx200sr. SR being semi recoiless. The action is set on a sled rather than fixed. When you fire it, the whole action moves to counteract recoil.

    The trigger flaps about when it's not cocked!

    Super accurate, but then so is the TX and the ProSport. Sold mine.

    They are one to own if you get the chance mate, and very accurate too.
    I had 3, and only sold them due to reducing my collection.

    Have a great day yourself bud. 😊.👍

    That's because it disengages from the action whilst uncocked.
    Never found it a problem.

    You’re right about the trigger,! That’s the one thing I don’t like about mine.

    Quite good then....so how come it seems most of you sold them on in favour of others

    Surely a floppy trigger when uncocked wasn't that off-putting was it?

    Hi Harvey

    I think this old Gamo may have been one of the first SR rifles to use the recoil cancelling Sled action, Really there was no recoil on these as I can throw the pellets faster!!

    ASI Statical by el Gamo, c1970's..

    Surely the FWB 300 must be the first re-coiless springer
