Hi Guys.

Having just got a slot on my ticket for FAC air... I need some space in my gun cabinet.

Reluctantly I am selling my HW95 .22 with a Bushnell 5-15-x40 Mil Dot scope.
The scope is sitting in a Sportsmatch one piece adjustable mount.
Fitted with a Butler Creek Sling.
When I purchased this rifle from new....I sent it away to Sandwell Field Sports for a complete tune...the rifle shoots beautifully with very little recoil.

The rifle is in near mint condition and like all my rifles has been very well looked after.
Got a very small ding in the butt section of the stock.....gun cabinet ding.

In all, this set up cost me in the region of £645.00 all in.

I am selling for £400 + postage...Parcelforce 24 tracked and signed for.

The standard rifle alone is retailing at about the £350 mark:thumbsup:

All the work has been done...cock it...load a pellet and fire away.

Payment by Paypal or bank transfer, please.

Anyone who knows about these springers and scopes, tuning, will appreciate what's on offer:thumbsup:

Over 18s only.

Nice Willie.
Is that a barrel weight model Willie.
I've had a could of these, for a break barrel they're lovely. V-Mach £90 tune and fitting £60 £200 scope sounds sweet.
Had work done by SFS myself nice folk.
The right calibre too. Are you up North chuck.

I see you are from Devon long way away.
 
Hi, Will :)

Yes it is the barrel weight model:thumbsup:

The tune transformed what was already a stunning rifle.
Far easier to cock the rifle after the the tune too....use the little pinkie if you wanted too:D
Aye the scope is nice glass crystal clear....and the adjustable paralax is spot on.

Yes, Sandwell Field Sports are top notch and great to deal with...their work is impeccable.

Having had two yourself you know how sweet they are.:thumbsup:

Also had a HW98 almost the same as the 95 but in a much nicer stock...adjustable combe too....bonus.....that was .22 aswell.

What are you shooting at the moment Will??
 
Thanks for asking.
I'm in decline. I'm tempted to exaggerate posting lists of plinkers like gongs after the battle but at the mo, Strewth it's hard to say,
Just only two. Disgraceful I know, I do apologise, it's my age. The trouble was folk kept offering more money than my poor old brain could say no to.
Two .22 97 one 25mm and one 26mm the former being a Venom the latter V-Mach
They are Ray Walker specials Just posted a bit in the Kit section about Ray if you haven't deleted my profanities. The V-Mach is a bit stiff to be honest. I don't care if I miss I'm a bit of a one shot Willie too or nothing. Lost the testicle on the left. Had a bit of a stroke a couple of months back effected my eyes. Only squint now one eye and one ball. A bit like Popeye. My cycling days are over. Four brats just in time though, all Olive Oils.
 
Yes I have edited your post:whistle:.....made me blush mate:rofl:

Your rifles sound nice Will...are they 12ftlb or FAC?
Stick some pictures up mate would love to see them:thumbsup:
From one of your previous posts I gather you shoot targets maily now?
What distances are you shooting out to?

Sorry to hear about the stroke mate :( hope you are over it now:thumbsup:
Have you thought about shooting with a Golf Ball in the opposite pocket to even things up a bit:rofl::p

Talking about eyes....my left eye is lazy and turns in :D got worse over the years...I will be looking out of the back of my own head in a few more years:rofl:
Trouble is....its my scope eye too being a left hand shot:(...but I manage.

Having a dodgy back my standing shots are rubbish these days....so its mainly prone shooting for me now.....if I can get down....and back up again:D

With all these ailments its a wonder we still bother....let alone hit anything:rofl:
 
Strewth, that makes me feel better.
Finished with full bore and FAC I could do pictures. The trouble is since the wife caught me watching porn on her computer I've bin banned from using it. Like being a teenager again!
Only have my tablet and I haven't mastered pics as yet and all my lovely duck and gun pics are on there. I would have to email them to myself.
It's not impossible. I do have a couple though to share.
That's my range I shoot from 42 of my strides or where the trees are from which my golf balls dangle. Then 60 Blah's and 70 is the limit really. Sitting in luxury with a huge gun cushion. Always a glass of Mc Swans Champion and fag in hand.

Beware golf balls are deadly dangerous targets. I only do it because I'm old.

:rofl: The face of butter wouldnt melt.....love it :rofl:

Thats a cracking range Will.....lucky man:thumbsup:....shame I am so far away I would have taken you up on the offer of a plink....and a glass or two of course;)

How many Ducks do you have there?

Yep.....the Golf balls are lethal :confused:

Fancy getting caught out :rofl::rofl:
 
don't start me talking about Ducks!
Get your hankeys out time. I Will Tell you another time. My medication is wearing off.
I have one here next to me now Horatio.
Mine are called Dick, Willy , Buck it's against the rules, god and good taste to mention the other Quacking names.
Did you see that Tarantino film with John Travolta My Names Buck and I'm here
For The Duck!!
 
Pictutes

I like your 95 Bob.
Had my fingers burnt with a fancy Bushnell, not long after I bought the thing it fell apart, literally.
The big end came right off.
How much for the dinged 95 gun only Bob big Buddy.

Hi Will.

Sorry to hear of your problem with the Bushnell :thumbsdown:
The one on the 95 is a genuine article and was purchased new by me.
Sounds like someone could have been trying to reset the Parallax and made a hash of it?

To be quite honest.....I do not want to split the combo mate :(

I think I still have the boxes for the scope and rifle in the loft.....maybe the reciepts too :thumbsdown:

Will have a look later.....out with all my Grandchildren today:thumbsup:
 
Post deleted.......inappropriate chat!!

Hi Will.

Glad you are sorted....when you say you bought new....did you buy a new 95??
 
No Willie,

Jobby above is not the plinker I bought yesterday.
Different gun. Both .177 though!


Those 95 barrel weight guns were selling for under £200 near me a few years back.
Delete this bit if you like Will.

Hi Will.

Why would I want to delete it?:thumbsdown:

You have just about confirmed the value for money that I'm offering with this set up.:rofl:

£400...take away £80 for scope (used price).......=£320......take away the fully adjustable Sportsmatch mount £35 (used price)....= £285.....take away the tuning work £90.......= £195.....take away the Butler creek sling £5 (used price)

Means the rifle comes out on its own at £190.00:thumbsup:....not too shabby eghh.....you should have bought the set up mate:rofl::rofl::p

I doubt the other £200 95s were tuned to perfection.....maybe they were.....but I very much doubt it:thumbsup:

Reading through this again.......... I have priced it far to cheaply........darn it!!! :rofl:
