30-6 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I have an aa s200 sub 12 and an aa s410 xtra in fac. I'm finding that my divers bottle is going out of test between refills, so I have decided to get a Hills hand pump, so that solves that little dilemma. But, I have an urge to treat myself to a break barrel. I've always used .22 so might go .177. Something just to grab as I go out to cover the times when a squirrel jumps out in front of the car as you drive up the farm lane and you think should have brought a gun. After a quick peruse looking at BSA lightening or a HW 99s, any suggestions ? This of course might just be a fad I'm having at the moment because the fat man in a red suit didn't leave me Kylie Minouge or Joanna Page, and I'm still pouting. Am I too old at post 60 for such a desire, the gun I mean, I would have taken a chance on those beautiful ladies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ultrastu Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Best to handle each gun .the stocks couldn't be more different . Neither are light with a scope on top Quote Link to post Share on other sites
figgy Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 You could just buy a compressor and enjoy shooting the pfft guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
binxkeys Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Definitely 99s - it's in a different league to the lightening. Just search for some reviews on the lightening so you know what you're looking at. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bruno22rf Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Why not ramp it up a bit and look for a classic? HW80, Original 45, Annie 335, FWB Sport - loads to choose from and nice to use something a little different some times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
