A great review from AGD on the latest Barra Winchester, it has some nice points like the brass plated butt stock and the interchangeable barrel system (.177 & .22)....

And me.
Well, SMK were supposed to be taking delivery of their Barra stock on 25th February. I sent them an email over a week ago with no response.

It looks a nice piece of kit, the brass butt plate and the octagonal barrel really make it stand out. A nice touch being available in the man's calibre and the ladies' calibre. 😜
However, I am a bit troubled by that single pin being the only thing holding the two halves together...

Mark, It is exactly the same fixing method as the Umarex cowboy shell ejecting Winnie. In fact it is probably the same manufacturer they are so similar in the build and operation.

Probably just a pre-order deposit fee

Probably just a pre-order deposit fee On the web site it asks for £50 deposit. I’ll get in contact with my RFD.

I already have one with an Octagonal barrel and a brass butt plate.... Must admit though this Barra one does look very nice .
