    Nice find.

    I take it that the .177 variety could be purchased and shipped to the good old UK within the law being that they are 160 m/s (4.8ish ftlb).... that would make it very affordable.

    Could be very nice indeed.

    I ❤ E.U.

    Perhaps you could explain to me why it's three times more expensive in the UK?

    It isn't all down to profit, is it?

    Ooooo.... that's a bit good.

    I too wonder what trigger tinkering it can take - and how the grip is attached/being capable of being easily replaced....

    66 quid shipped from Poland! Good old free market. I wonder how much airguns would go up in price if we left the EU, a remortgage on the house I think !

    Trophy Pistol

    And I thought 159 was cheap but 48 is a bloody steal.

    I wonder if it can converted to bulk fill as well!

    Why would the price be any different?

    Only thing is they wont accept paypal so I asked my bank to do a transfer and they said it would be another £25 , I am waiting for them to become more widespread in the uk , I thought SMK might import them but asked in my local SMK stockist and they say not doing them seems only Airforce one up to now .
    a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .
    This is why constant restrictions on legal users will have no effect on the unlawfull use of guns or knives !

    I'll explain it when someone explains to me why I can buy wood screws cheaper than pellets - same manufacturing process, similar quantities, more difficult material to form...
