I have not seen or heard a Squirrel in the woods for weeks . Shot a couple at the golf course bird feeders , but apart from them zero.

Little Nipper spring traps , with peanut nutter or Nutella on the bait end . Mind fingers though , keep the cat away by putting the trap in a cardboard box with access holes . Cheap but very effective,

I have the gen 3 , and for an old man with a bad back , they are superb. I wouldn't be without them .

My Regal , really nice condition , running at 26ft/lbs . Shrouded barrel , RH Stock . I love it, but its just not getting used , I no longer need an FAC air rifle . as I mostly use my CZ Rimfire . Photos to follow , or by Whats app . Strictly Collection only. Warrington Cheshire £425

Isolated pockets of them in North Cheshire , I wont shoot them any more .

I find a.22 FAC Rifle running at 20ftlbs with 14.3 g pellets(800 ft per second) , sort of copes with most things, and is a good compromise between 12ft/lb and a Rimfire. So a Hatsan Flashpup, BSA Ultra or something, along those lines should suit you requirements. Just my humble opinion.

I recently bought a Hills pump mk5 , but not with the dry pack . I too only Shoot my pcp’s when hunting so topping up isn't to hard , even for me who has a really bad back. So much so I am selling my big bottle (12ltr), and just keeping my smaller 7 ltr. So if you just top up , its pretty easy if you follow the advice of people on here. Full strokes , using legs and body weight .👍

12ltr Air bottle (232bar). Clamp, gauge, and heavy duty hose . Tested 08/23. And full . It has a proper rubber boot . £100 Collection only . Warrington .

Oooh , that looks good. emailing now. -
Me too, shot 2 in Jan , feeders untouched, except for thousands of small birds. Are they all at home , watching Nutflix? A tin can on a string at 50yds is still fun though.

Would cost me more in Diesel than refund. When I get time I will see whats stopping it from locating properly. I might be able to re engineer it slightly.

Yes mate , an Airtech extended tube , HW silencer and Huma reg. All the Air gun I will ever need. Loads of shots. I have a HW110 , And a Huntsman Regal FAC, but the Scorpion is my Fave.
-
I emailed the supplier , who gave me some advice, about how to set it up and I tried it today . It still wouldn't operate properly.

I recently purchased a replacement / spare mag for my Daystate Regal . Its a 3Dprinted item from Element Objects . I followed the instructions , tried the 'Stop pin' in the holes provided , but the pellet probe would not go through the mag, even if I 'Floated' the mag to try and centralise it. It was quite expensive . So will contact the gun shop i bought it from. Very disappointing.
