SNAKEBITE Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I don't think you have done to badly at all mate. Infact I would go so far as to say I wish I had got one of those instead of the HW57 I bought. The silencer was the deciding factor. What does she go like?

verminator2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 the new silencer on the lightning is supposed to be sh#t hot before purchasing my rifle i looked up on review sites review centre being the main one and it was a toss up between the lightning or the bda ultra carbine.but to be truthfall if i had the funds a air arms s410 classic would have beat the pair hands down for me.or to extremes the fx tarrantula f.a.c but f.a.c certificate not that easy to get hold of. do u think buying the laser was a bit gimmicky or it genuinely is a good piece of kit for range finding.

SNAKEBITE Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 To be honest I have had mixed results with the laser. It would not hold it's zero for a start! But apart from that I think it is important to "learn" your distances by eye. If I had a laser that would hold it's zero and be accurate then I would give it another go, I think it would be more benefit at night for judging the distance. That seems to be the hardest to judge!
