I have a mate who recently bought a brand new FX2000 in .22 calibre.

Not knowing where to get the rifles cheaply, and having plenty of wedge, he walked into a shop and bought what they pointed him at. No probs as the gun and him seem to be doing the job.

He's on the point of getting an FAC now, and I think it would be better for him to uprate his current rifle. If he sold it on he'd loose a packet, plus he'd have to buy another rifle, and lose even more money. He's happy with it, so it makes sense to have the current rifle uprated.

I'm expecting a proper "factory" type change for somewhere between £50-£100.

Any advice?

Best place for good job? Preferably local to London, but any suggestions welcome.
