All the cheaper manufacturers have improved over the years if you look at their mid range kit.
At the top end they're still pushing their technical limits for quality but that technical limit is way ahead of where it was 10 years ago .
I'm so impressed with my new Fenix 400 Carbine Laminate
I think it may be the best rifle out of the box I have bought .....
So who else is 'on it' during these generally tricky times - ?
Which other maker / manufacturers are smart enough to get their sales by really doing their best to 'get it right' - ?

I think Cometa are on to a winner with the Fenix 400 USC at that price point,(seen a few shops selling them for £295 now ) I’m wanting the green colour laminate stock one (that big Dan had on Facebook)although I’m only seeing the grey ones available at mo which are very nice 👍🏻 I also like the look of the Orion SPR and Lynx PCP rifles. Look great quality for the price.
Great to hear of your satisfaction with your new Cometa. Keep enjoying.

Weihrauch has actually improved their products, despite the idiotic stock design the have introduced.
The changes to the barrel blocks and stock mounts that happened around 2012 are improvements in my opinion.
Too bad they dropped the cylinder honing on the HW35/80 they did back in the 80's.
Too many airguns!
I think the lifetime warranty offered by Cometa speaks volumes
The Advance bullpup is on my radar

First Time Right...wouldnt that be nice...for all kinda manufacturing
Not everyone is on the Lean Six boat yet
Imo, many brands are working hard to, at léast, innovate and improve. For instance, an often 'hated'brand but I love their efforts and their improvements, every single year: Gamo.
New models regularly, Fitted BSA mag for their Gen 1, later Gen 2 and 3 systems, triggers etc.
Stoeger is also working hard. With stocks you can alter with different grips etc.
I like Cometa. Owned a Fusion with spring. Very nice, accurate, rifle. Not very hold sensitive either.

Somewhere around 2014 I had stopped hunting with firearms and exchanged my guns for a new light weight Cometa fusion 5.5mm air rifle. This Cometa was equipped with a gas ram. I had fallen for the look. But because this rifle had no open sights, only a scope could be placed on it. Personally, I don't like scopes and the rifle ended up in the weapon cabinet. Until recently. The gas ram had halved in strength after 8 years. Took this out and did put in a new HW spring. I made a precision guide rod from aluminum to keep the noise down. Removed the ugly top hat of the barrel. That cannot possibly have been conceived by the designer, but rather by a boss who wanted to push his idea through. Really a detriment to such a nice gun. Because my eyes are no longer as sharp at close range, a peep sight still works well for me. Installed and adjusted self made sights. The rifle groups insanely well. That can't be otherwise because of the hammered barrel. The trigger still had to be adjusted, but after all these years, after all the adjustments, I am super satisfied with it finally!
We all knowTonyL is run by a giant HW Spring=BOING-BOING.!!!
