All the German things are perfectly good but the British designed things have a grace or soul about them that the German thinks lack. It's true of airguns too...

    This is just my opinion though, perhaps I just have a more refined sense of aesthetics than some...

    Re: the BSA Scorpion VS the HW45... Has the HW45 ever been used as a prop gun in a Bond film? Nope! The BSA Scorpion has!!!
    No it hasn't. It was a Walther LP! ^^^ And please don't prove me wrong with a Scorpion seen in some other Bond movie!!!

    And the Walther wasn't in the film. Just in the film poster
