Yes, especially since the 25mm 77 and the short stroke TX of the time are better mechanically than the current offerings...Originally Posted by Geezer
My thoughts exactly.
Sad, isn't it? I mean, you buy an HW77K in 1985, or a TX in 1990, and nothing since is better?
Springers went about as far as they could. It's the same with firearms, the Mauser action is still used when a precisely accurate, magazine fed rifle is needed for sport or war.
There were the Whiscombes, Parks and the like, but they didn't give much of an advantage when everything was weighed up.
