  1. Get yourself a Falcon decoy, they will HATE it. Either they will come down directly for the decoy and mob it or perch in the nearest tree and abuse the hell out of it. With an Air Rifle id say you best bet would be to place a decoy near a sitty tree, then get them when they perch to scream at the deek. Camo may help you to a degree but you need to make sure that your well hidden.
  2. Carrion Crow Very difficult to get within sub 12ft/lb range of them. Very sharp eyes and the will always perch and roost as high as possible so they can see whats about. Ive found a predator decoy works well, they hate it. Really challenging quarry so its pretty satisfying if you get one, hence my favourite quarry.
  3. PCP - You need a bottle or pump. Springer - you dont Carbine means a shorter version of the above rifle, be it PCP or springer. Full length versions are normally refered to as 'rifle' or 'rifle length'.
  4. Bump £175?? Any takers? Save over £100 on a new one Cheers
  5. p.m's and email answered. The MKII just means it has a saftey catch where as i dont think the MKI did. Cheers
  6. BSA Hornet MKII .177 Single Shot 7/8 months old ish. Purchased new from Uttings for £299.99 Still got the original paper work from BSA. Nice condition, few dings to the underside of the stock but nothing nasty. Barrel is marked where various silencers have been secured, again nothing major. 70-80 shots per charge of 232 bar. Scope not included in the price but will sell if somebody realy wants it. As accurate as any other gun ive shot. £175 plus courrier postage. Can also supply Webley stirrup pump but it needs a service from Webley to the tune of £27.50 Cheers
  7. Seconded. Sounds like ive got the same pair as Country Boy. Mine are the same as this
  8. AWT is the best ive tried. The Weihrauch HW100 silencer is probably the best ive tried 'off the shelf'.
  9. AWT Silencer? Looks like it. Got one on my Super 10. Its the best ive found
  10. BSA Hornet MKII .177 . AGS SWAT 4-16x56 with XVD Night Vision Attatchment and IR Filtered Lamp Sandwell Field Sports Silencer BSA Superten MKI. .22. 8.5-34x52 Scope (Unbadged Deben Mil Pro) Custom Silencer cant remember who from
  11. Plenty of scopes nocking around now with 30mm tubes. Ive seen a Walther 4x32 AO IR with 30mm tube and i was also fairly impressed. I think it was a mil dot reticle. 30mm tubes aint the be all and end all. There is still plenty of **** out there, some with 30mm tubes. They are certainly the 'in' thing at the moment. What you shooting snakebite? With what gun?
  12. Boys toy? yeah suppose, its a bit gimmicky. I still like to use it though. I found that when using an old Logun lamp kit with red filter (underpowered as far as lamping kits go) that a green illuminated reticle on a medium/low setting worked really well. Obviously the more powerful the lamp then the less need for IR you will have in this partcular scenario. I personally prefered shooting with the red filter on and making use of the IR. The rabbits didnt bolt as easy and i could always be 100% sure as to where the cross hares were pointing thanks to the green illumination. Thats the idea of it. Not a fan of NV either? But lamping your perfectly ok with? Not deaf and blind yet they cant see you? Im not sure i see where your going here Id also say go and look for some good glass, if you wish to go down the expensive route then as Pie Man says, you cant really go wrong with a S&B. Reffering back to your original post, having looked through a Walther of a similar spec to your own id advise you to look elsewhere. Again based on what i saw i cant see you really improving on what is essentially pi*s poor optics. As Pieman points out there is superb quality glass out there if you wish to go down the remortgage route. Again refering to your original post, there are nice scopes out there of a similar spec to what your currently using and also in a similar kind of price brackett to that of the Walther.
