It's a fair question... You might expect a nation with a high turnout of a particular product to have grown out of a domestic market, but in...

Its not old Bill is it Neil? Melv Chippendale

Possibly Pete, although having a sweet match type trigger is probably top of the tree in requirements for most there are also the internals that play...

A few years back I got a Williams AG peep sight from Craig P ,but couldn’t get on with it for bell target shooting. I sold it to Gary (gtfreight)...

I have a friend in London, maybe you know them?

I should have been clearer in my post.. I am using a regular bead/post foresight. It just so happens that the hood itself is a fraction smaller than...

You're right about the pistol grip "creaking" a bit I suppose but I've not found it hinders me or the rifle's accuracy any. I've also read about...

I was thinking of a 35 with a new spring New stock New barrel New cylinder But I'll keep the trigger

Yeah I understand theres always a possibility of a Friday afternoon Cometa’s just the same as every other brand out there and getting a duff one that...

I'd often thought that myself, I wonder if the Rekord trigger (or something like it) had been fitted to all BSA's then would have they been more...

Fao Oliver. Photos sent to your email but can’t message you on the BBS as your PM boxes are all full (lol). Good to hear from you matey and as...

This is like the Yanks expecting every Scouser to be friends with a Beatle

I seem to remember they were sub £200 New at one time Pete, It was way back in around 2008 when I first tried a 99 and purely by accident as I...

Oops, sorry; seems I've stirred a bit of a hornet's nest.:rolleyes: Each to their own, peeps.:oldwink:

Yep, let's make it a truly international institution!:oldwink::cool::cool::)

I guess that, even fifty years ago, if people had visited England and asked non-shooting people about BSA and Webley air rifles most wouldn't have...

Probably get them mail order.

I know what you mean, Nick. The very competitive price (for many years) most certainly must have helped with the 99's popularity. That low price had...

The presence of a few 35s at The Bash is sure to get a few wicked tongues wagging.:oldwink: Let's make sure we keep them safe, boys.:oldwink::oldgrin:

Yep, I think it's going to add a more "focussed" (sorry:rolleyes::oldwink::oldgrin:) flavour, Craigy. I feel reassured that you are also a fan of...

Going back a good few years ago, I had to do some work in Turkey for an employer looking at suppliers. You might find the arms industry is centred in...

Just shifting focus a bit onto the 99 Tone, if the several factors that make the 99 a good rifle for the British market, like you said earlier, if...

My friend it would be great to have you over - anything I can do to assist, just give me a shout.

Very nice setup, Jon. I see you have the thumbwheel adjusters too - I must get a set of those. I'm of the same mind as Tony and far prefer the...

Just 25 to go now, peeps.:oldwink::) BOING!:oldgrin:

Looking lovely, Jon.:cool: Personally, for our uses, I'm more than happy to use a bead / post foresight as I feel it gives a more unobstructed...

I know what you mean, Craigy.:oldwink: My youngest one was 20 yesterday meaning that we now have no teenagers in the house for the first time in a...

I hear where you're coming from, Nick.:oldwink: And it is, indeed, a shame that the choice has become so limited these days for people wanting a...

That sounds good to me Craig. One of these days I'll partake in the experience👍

I hear you. Word of advice on the trigger. The main adjustment screw can be reached through the trigger guard. It´s a small M3 allen stoppie job if...

yes got a new piston seal recently from there.

Ok. I´ll bite, and will bore you guys stiff for a minute or two. :oldgrin: By now i´ve been at this for a while (read - years) building my own...
