Hi, just got myself one of these air rifles. In really good condition and serviced. Anyone had previous experience with them.

i keith, ask LONEWOLF, he has one, he serviced it, and it`s running smoothly.
kind rgds.. J.S.D. in SUNNY BELLSHILL.
Yes, I've just serviced one.....
Quite a lot of pre load on the spring, but very sweet shooting. This one was one owner from new and needed a replacement piston head, but once stripped I just replaced everything, properly cleaned and greased I didn't want to give it back!
An all time classic. Mk1, Mk2, Mk3 and Mk4. Light, accurate and power. Does have a couple of not so great points but still a lovely rifle. Mach 1.5
have one myself,easy to cock,plenty of power,accurate and looks really nice.mine has the plastic trigger,hand chequering on a quite nice beech stock.as mentioned the spring has a lot of pre-load but as yours has had a modern piston seal you can leave well alone,the old seals crumbled with age.
I prefer the 124.
A classic for good reason. Right weight and great pointability for seriously good shooting. They have all the quirks of a springer which makes shooting them fun. When you get sorted how to shoot one well then they sure do deliver.
Love them.
Yes, very nice. From memory, the only criticism I had was the safety catch was prone to become unreliable.
Cheers, Phil
I've always found them overrated they had a few good points but also many bad,
