Pump action ??

To be honest I was thinking of getting one, just as a spare. One of my permissions is a bit of a drive and if I run out of air or get a problem with my rife I could go back to the wagon and pick this up. That way i dont have to depend on air.

 

I am going to keep an eye out for a used one on the cheap, I guess someone will buy one and get fed up with it. But is it any better than a springer?

No there not any better than a springer, springers have survived so long using virtually the same principals and build because there great. The pump idea is not a new one and didn't set the world a light first time round.

 

Get a decent springer as a spare.

No recoil, but then an XS or QB78 is recoil free and with a seal change is a useful little hunting gun. Just keep a few spare CO2 bulbs with it and have some fun fettling it up and then shooting it....

 

Best bet is to buy a lower cost spring powered rifle like a Hatsan 55 or 60 (which are available for twice as much money wearing the Webley name).
