Hi all, There's been someone who has joined the forum on what I believe is more than one occasion, filling out their profile with plausible info and posting enough to activate the PM facility but then acting suspiciously with other members. The latest example claimed to be from Bedford RC in their profile but then told other members different stories when trying to sell them things. We noticed that in one day, this individual had come on to the site via 20 different IP addresses, and not even from a reputable VPN provider but by what looked to be compromised devices of unsuspecting individuals. All we can really say is that if someone is offering something that appears too good to be true, it probably is and suggest that you exercise caution. If in doubt, reach out and we'll look at some patterns behind the scenes. All the best, and thanks for using the forum responsibly Neil

Continuing on my retirement trail, I have a very special rifle for sale! It is built as a 300 mt rifle, BUT, being in .223 rem it is also eligible for NRA Target Rifle TR events as well!!! The action is a specially built Sportco M44, shortened action, with centre action screw, and front recoil lug action screw. The action is mat black ceracote. It is in .223 Rem calibre, with a new TSE bolt head, special bolt handle, and a new TSE adapter to take a new Bartlein 1 in 8 twist barrel, 640 mm (25") with .223 Wylde chambering. The trigger is a Bix'n Andy 20 gm two stage , (for 300 mt and any thing with a free trigger), plus it also comes with a Sportco TR eligible 1500 gm trigger (a straight, simple ten minute fit). The rear sight is a new Gehmann 590 compact, with Centra iris, and Centra lens hood, mounted on a Centra metric rail, and it also comes with a PH 5C TR 4 click per minute TR sight, complete with mounting bracket, a simple switch, so, a 300 mt free trigger and metric sights, ten minutes and a TR sight and trigger! The front sight is the superb Crystal Centra Cube, with Crystal High End element, and a 0.5 Crystal Eagle eye for TR! (that's £200 of front sight!) Forget the 30 mm TR front sights, you have never looked through a sight like this for clarity of picture! The action is on a special machined alloy bedding block bolted into the stock. The stock is a Keppeler full bore K5 with my own modified alloy fore end inserts to make it as slim as the new K9 stock. Finished in Metalic black with polished alloy detail. The grip is a Walther KK300, the cheek piece is a flat top Walnut wood, fully adjustable in every direction, with my own side folding cheek piece so it can be high, and fold to open the bolt, simples! The butt plate is a Keppeler, adjustable for length, height and angles, with a removable (for TR) butt hook. All complete with a colour matched Mirage band (choice of colours!). The barrel was very carefully run in, and has shot a logged 200 rounds in total, including one 60 shot 300 mt match (just over my average). It shoots superbly with NRA available GGG 69 gn match ammo, and even better including spectacularly in wind, with my special 80 gn hand loads. The sale will include a box of each! Why then am I selling it? It was my lock down project, plus If you look on the General threads for my "bucket list project" that I have just finished, that's why, plus retirement looms, I don't need two the same calibre, and I need the cabinet space!!! It's very special, suitable and competitive, for 300 mt, TR, bench rest, or what ever you wish to do! The pic is not very good, I lost patience with the resizing site!! Its just a taster, if you are interested I have more and better detail pics on email robin.carter80@ntlworld.com At a fraction of the cost to build, the first sensible offer close to £2500 gets it! Have Fun Robin

Now sold! Thanks Robin

Just for your information, I found the company that made the cable for the twiddly thing, it’s a specialized drive cable that will drive in both directions, the problem is they only deal with trade sales, won’t give out samples and have a minimum order amount, I forget what this is but it’s in the hundreds of pounds. Not to say that we could order and split it up around the country ! Regarding springs, yes I believe Freeland have fitted a spring that would cope with the largest scope likely to be fitted to the stand, therefore once you remove the standard screw and replace the with a drive cable you will need to balance the spring to the scope, if you remove the standard spring measure OD and wire size, the go on eBay and match up a lighter option, this worked for me with a little trial and error, you will need to cut the new spring down possibly with a grinder. Hope this is helpful and makes sense. Best Regards Jerry

🤣 Is that like ‘Not The Nine O’Clock News’? Should I rebrand as above 🤣

The Membership is definitely the "first defence" but I try to do whatever possible to protect and keep things running smoothly

That'll learn me to check the copy and paste! Should be £1200 or near(ish) offer. No offers of a shilling, dead mouse, ball of string or champion whippet please!

Many thanks, you might get them quicker at a local hardware store

Not if the paperwork is done correctly and the goods are of EU preferential origin - and stated as such on the invoice. But Parcelforce get this wrong frequently and have been stealing money for UK Gov for the last few years. But they will be subject to UK VAT at the standard rate.

I've seen far older threads revived, and with less relevance. Photos of classics like the Unique T2000 never go amiss in my book.

Not to mention the racin' pigeons! Me farrrrther is from Huddersfield and he would gi'me a right clip round t'earhole if he saw this!

*ahem* I'm not interested myself, but other people might be wondering "near offer to what?"... unless one of the numbers is missing a £ symbol, in which case as a Yorkshireman I'd assume it to be £.308

Cheers. I’m in central Scotland. Scott

Being tight I was hoping to find someone with a spare going cheaper than the £25 from anschutz. 😟

Correct... There were 3 posts with content of nothing more than "ttt" in what looked like nothing more than trying to bump a post to the top of the listings

I’m lost. I do have a 10/22 rig myself and was trying to contribute to a “forum”.

Hi, I have a Nesom tube for Anschutz 1913 for sale.

As it would happen a club member has decided to sell his slightly earlier but low round count Racer WC so will be taking that down the range next week to see how it feels

Hi All....I have a FWB Universal that's about 6 months old, and it has genuinely not had a full tin of pellets through it so in as new condition, not a mark on it. It will come with everything that it was supplied with from new including it's FWB hard case, tools & manual. I have also fitted a Centra High End Foresight insert to it, link below. This rifle was £2200 new....I'm asking £1599......open to sensible offers..... https://www.feinwerkbau.de/en/Sporting-Weapons/Air-Rifles/Model-800-Universalalt https://www.edinkillie.co.uk/centra/centra-high-end-foresight-insert-p-158.html Thanks for looking....👍

Yup Jonty totally agree re why the flexible adjuster is necessary for right hand shooters. I leave my scope attached to the stand so most of the time it is at the correct height. Outdoors it may require some vertical adjustment depending on the type of ground and I have a standard height to set it to with tape measure which means I am pretty close to correct straight away but as we all know it is those last few mms that are a bu883r and when the adjuster comes into its own. As everyone says there is a demand for a quality one so someone could charge a decent amount if they could produce it.

A number of our club use "Black & Decker Workmates" with a ply bench top clamped in which work very well and can be dismantled and collapsible. If interested I can send some photos of mine which I made recently to shoot 50 metres.

As long as it's all the same size they are largely universal. M18 is usually the standard size.

If you are still looking drop me a PM 👍

I think that one has been there for about a year now for some reason 🎄 Seriously, probably about half that if I'm to be able to pay for the new rifle when it's ready, especially if I decided to keep it as a spare

@jimrward the exact specifications are M6x0.75x12 (fine thread) and it was solved with an email to Anschutz Germany. They have them in stock and just bought the two I need, so problem solved!

I bought the one advertised here by rossdook. Thanks Ross - it's going well!
