My local shop is way over priced. I understand the transportation costs are more to get goods here but his prices are way above that .
A beat up HW99S for £200 secondhand. It looked like it had been run over and driven over by a tank. It may still be there after 4 years , although I was once told if it does not sell he sells them in bulk to a seller in England but I'm not sure if that's true.
I buy my .22lr bullets from Livelines. I can save around £15 per 500. So I buy them when I visit my brother in Bathgate.
If your on facebook ,check out livelines on there .
Can confirm Livelines is a great wee shop. Proper old school air gun and associated equipment emporium. Lots of rifles on the wall, some pistols in the cabinet, a wide choice of pellets, scopes and other gadgetry.
Unfortunately, this meant I somewhat blew my budget. They had an NP02 which I thought might be a good intro. But, they showed me a Walther Reign and well, how could I not.
Very pleased, and I dare say I'll be back again in a couple of months.
I was commenting to the owners, back in the day - when I was a scout - we had a summer camp. We'd always have a day out in the nearest decent-sized town, and we'd always seek out The Shop. It was the place that had the Black Widow catapults, or the GAT guns, and the knifes, plus other assorted offensive items. Back then (1980's), you could buy them too, even if you were 12.
There's a shop on Fort William High Street - or there was - that sells all sorts of swords, knifes, BB Guns, but no air guns... I don't of any that are left off the top of my head.
Oh well.
I need a silencer for this Walther though... It's got a bit of a bark about it...
That shop in Fort William ( Rod and Gun ) is long gone . Closed in 2013. . A great shop always had a look in when I was up that way. I had not been up for a number of years and when we were staying close by I went for a look. And it was gone. So was the shop that sold all the scottish goods near the police station.
My mates brother sold them lots different types of swords like the Highlander claymore and the Wallace Sword and others( John Barnett swords) . It was a great shop too.
