M.I.A Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Im sure people forget how effective springers are! Proper shooters use springers :yp: Well done Edited February 3, 2012 by M.I.A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhw100 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I done my apprenticeship with a Webley eclipse then a hw97k...I know they are more than capable! It's just nowadays everyone empahsises on pcp,unless you do hunter field target. I keep thi king about buying another 97 or 77 but I don't know if I'd use it much and miss the multishot,I'd end up going home and getting my hw100!

Paladin Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Good work there. Aint they heavy though, I've got the Mk1 like yours but a Venom with the brass 'lolypop' inlay and shorter barrel. I must start using it again.
