In the absence of a Bash Sales Thread, is anyone thinking of selling a good break barel springer? It'd be for one of the chaps at work who had a Webley Hawk back in the day. Maybe a HW99, 95, 35 or 80? Diana 280 / 34? Brummy Stingray or Xocet?

I've a 35 I should really sell, as I have a couple. Or I might just shoot it, and decide I want to keep it I know we have some nostalgia for leather, but the synth sealed 35s with the extra stroke really do shoot nice..

Didn't you say someone was bringing a few rifles for sale Tony?

Yes, it was Gary from Lincoln, Pete. I think it will be mainly pistols, though. A junior Webley rifle and a Gamo PCP was mentioned, too. He sort of fleetingly mentioned some others; I'll contact him and see if he has anything suitable.

Well, I was hoping to get that new-to-me HW97 roughly zeroed in yesterday (I usually aim to have a .177 set up so that it's shooting about 10mm low at around ten yards in the garden).

But..My favourite mounts are the Sportsmatch one piece, double screw items. My ideal scope of choice would have been the 2-7x32 Airmax. But I'd always read that it was too short to fit in a one-piece mount. So I'd gone for the Vantage version instead. AND......that's too short, too. It won't fit in the "scope saddle" by about 3mm. Bugger! That'll teach me to check in future!

Anyways, two piece double screw mounts duly ordered from JSR. Hopefully they'll land today and I can have another play. And the one-piece can go onto something else.

Every day's a school day!

Just 17 to go for the Saturday peeps.

Now, we really are getting nearlier, nearly there!

Let me know how that goes, Jon.
