Having pellet firing replicas is my preference ( multi-shot if possible), but single shot springers definitely have a place, or even single shot co2 e.g. S&W 78G.  They may not have the operational realism, but the self contained aspect of springers has a great appeal. |

I agree. Wont be long before Mr Umarex sorts us out with a Winchester springer. Then again.............  Can't see a reason why not though.

Yeah I have longed for a Winchester springer Billy. They could do a really nice underlever version with lovely wood stock and full 11-12ftlbs of power with rifled barrel.  |

I see AAR on Air has just done a review of it.... I don`t mind his stuff, as long as you don`t take everything as gospel. I know Wild Bill isn`t keen on him, but hey.... we all like different things.....which is a good thing... inn`it.
I am tempted tbh.
Pete.

Just watched the AAR review, it looks really good this to be fair. I like the inclusion of the rail as I know the open sights on UZI's aren't that great. The red dot doesn't look out of place

I am sure the accuracy will be improved even more after a trigger fettle. Most do.
