I assumed that, maybe, the site was out of date and in need of updating.

    However, I had a quick look again yesterday and they're still showing. Maybe they are being made still just not being imported by the distributor? I wonder if they could be convinced to bring them in again, or what sort of minimum order number would be required to get some in?
    One of the Spanish air rifle makers (either Norica or Cometa) were rebadging Nikko Gold Crowns, I remember seeing them on one of the European sites.

    Glad you're sorted with the access issue, Paul; that must have been frustrating.

    We'll let you surprise us with the rifles tomorrow.

    That's what I'm thinking re the 35, it was just serviced by Lyn before I got it too, so no bodgers involved on that rifle

    Waiting for feedback on the CLX does sound like the smart move, but a chap on the other channel (same guy I got the Supersport off) has already got one & started taking it to bits, I've not looked since yesterday but it's probably completely stripped, new guide & back together by now

    Nice to see you back, "adult content"

    I think I'm just bringing my 77 mate. I'll be bringing the Omega as it's going back north with Scott, but 3 bags will be a right faff up those stairs.

    I've got my Cometa Fusion and the LGV packed up and ready to go. I'm hoping someone else brings an LGV so I can compare.
    See you all in the morning. 😊

    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Yep, that 35 has all the correct ingredients to ensure it will be an absolute cracker, Paul.

    Yep, that's what I thought. Just the one rifle. Less planning and lugging about. Especially as I'm having lifts to and from, it'll make life much easier.
