Valid thought provoking post Davey.
You see ,I have shot or owned most of the guns
that are popular,
I'm not going to drag any make down just for the sake of it,
but,
the Lightening xl I had was poorly finished,the breech was so tight
to make up for the lack of an adjuster,after only 20 pellets
it was shiny bare metal.
The 2 hw97k's I had were not the usual hw standard,
the first went back to HCC ,and the chap there admitted it had a prob
and said I either live with it,
it might get worse,or ignore it.
I opted for (demanded) a different gun.
Yes indeed s/h are an option
and many are well looked after here,but if buying new
there is a standard 12 month warranty on all 'new' goods,
if it's going to go wrong,then i'm sure it will show signs of this within a year.
As they say
'you pays your money and take a chance' etc

I recently purchased a HW97K on here for £150 posted and placed against the SMK XS20 that I own (and cost me £120 with scope) the 97K DESTROYS the SMK''.
How does it,i'm sure by looking at the penetration tests Iv'e done
my smk 19 is slightly more powerful.
And for a 12ftilb air rifle,if shooting vermin,30/35 yards are max for me,
on the grounds of a definite kill.
