good lads on here mate, harmony in the cottage so to speak. Good choice of gun , reliable /accurate, sounds like you got a deal with it, I have the s10 + rapid 7/12 , personally I don't think theres a lot between them but theres some who swear by one or the other. Welcome once again

hi, john, thanks for the feedback m8,
to be honest I think its a little front heavy for my liking, the only reason I had it was price, but now I have a feel for air guns I will find a better one and go for a very good setup with the night vision so I can post videos on the net as a new hobby, this setup will go to my oldest son (26) ,we also have a cometa 300 and air magnum 850 again only because we got them for pennies,
I just need to find the one I want quickly,, as last time I looked for a gun was for paintball, bought 46 before I got the wright one !!!!!! so now have 47 lol. most have sights/red dots and all the extras you can think of lol.

If you like messing about with your gear you've come to the right place. Nothing stays in one piece for very long with this group.
BTW Every one of those airsoft toys is a prohibited weapon where I am - but I can and do own handguns. The law is an ass wherever you are.

that is a bit daft
over here a gunshop can't sell air rifles by mail order.....a private individual can, but not a shop
we also have a banned type of air gun (air cartridge) that is legal to own as long as you owned it before the ban....but you can never sell it. when you die i s'pose your next of kin supposed to ring an armed response unit to cordon off all roads in a square mile of your house and send a team in to collect it lol
fair old collection you got there steve.....is there that much variety in paintball guns?

100% true, the law stops me buying a full power air gun but I can have a paintball marker that will fire glass or nylon .68 balls ,im sure they could do some real harm, I can also buy a crossbow pistol for as little as £6 than would kill a person ,no question,

things have moved on a lot m8, I have a barrett .50cal (a5 mod) and I think it looks awesome, the army now use them instead of the old laser setup because you get a more realistic feel, swot / police also use them to train, the days of just the old hopper fed pistol are long gone, I also like my a5 mag fed gun very small and fun to use, the good thing about paintball guns is I can shoot my kids !!!!! and not go to jail,
