HDAV Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) Have an odd hankering for an air pistol relive some of my childhood when I wasn't allowed one.... My uncle had a couple and I loved plinking with them he had I think a tempest and possibly a nemesis, I know the hw 45 is the one to go for but seen a nemesis for £70 and thought it looked a bit of fun. Fancy a umerax 686 too....... Is £70 right for a nemesis? What are unread 686 going for these days? Edited March 6, 2017 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi I think you're about right at £70 for a Nemesis, I bought one some years ago but I think I swapped it for something else, As a single stroke pneumatic they're a bit tame performance wise but very accurate as there's no recoil I've collected pistols for a few years now, My faves are the old steel Webley overlever pistols although they're not the most accurate of guns, The quality is superb!!!

HDAV Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Seller never got back to me shame, just fancy a bit of plinking umerax 686 would be ideal, but seem to fetch a high price even used, liked the nemesis as a kid. What was the BSA? Scorpion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
