jcbruno Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 hi all i havent had a air rifle since i was a kid much to my mothers dismay as i used to clean our garden of all my moms song birds i know shame on me but i am thinking of getting one again because i live on a army base north of the city pretty much in the country side and we get alot of magpies,rabbits and gophers and nobody is to fond of them, so i found a good Canadian distributor and i like the looks of the CZ and HW guns what do you guys think?

WeihrauchPower Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Go for a HW! I think most need to toughen up a little! Everyones always saying "good bit a bit on the heavy side"! Come on! I had a HW80 at 14 and it was heavy but i soon got used to it! My current rifle weighs in at 12.5lb and i weigh 12 stone, i've carried her over hard terrain for more than 20km with 15kg on my back in 30 degrees. It's what is needed over here if stalking is your game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveieP Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Don't you Canadians have stricter firearms laws even than the U.K?http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/sty...fault/laugh.gif I'm talking even lower than 12 ft/lb muzzle energy I'm sure if you browse the recent posts on the forum, you'll find similar Q's & A's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim the unfortunate thing is Canada often follows suit to what the UK does and our parliment works the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
