BSA Comet

[desperado]

Does anyone on here have, or know anyone that has one of these? Thinking of getting another wee combo in the next wee while.

 

Opinions please

Yes good choice there matey, did you know that the comet is a meteor but with plastic weaterproof stock? so all reviews of a meteor really which any one will tell you is a very good top rated hunting rifle and as a combo i would go and buy, where are you getting this great package from

Wrong, the meteor is only 10ftlbs comet is deemed full power.

I was looking at the combo Uttings have got for the .22 at £149 comes with a Hawke 4x32 Mil dot scope. (http://www.uttings.com) Am not sure as I have an old knackered HW 35 so I might find out how much it would be to get that repaired and up to hunting spec rather than shell out on a new combo. The HW 35 is about 25 years old so I like the idea of a nice new rifle

You could always repair the HW35 and then save up for a PCP air rifle? Because believe me, eventually you will probably want to move up to a PCP!!!

To be honest - I'm not really that interested in PCP, I like the fun of a springer Its not the money either, I'm more into shotguns than air rifles and I'm just wanting something to footer around with now and again, hence I've decided I don't want to spend much money.

 

Think I'll take the HW 35 to someone who actually knows about air rifles and see what their opinion is, it maybe only needs a new spring or summat.

Naddan28 dont mock me wrong i was only saying? im not talking of the flbs?, im saying that the action is of the meteor but placing the plastic stock on makes it a comet?

I am not mocking you just stating your wrong. The action will not be the same (barrel might be) as the same action would produce the same power. By action I am assuming you are talking the piston, springs etc.
