WANT!

Cant be bothered with snipers though. If it was a semi auto, maybe. Shame that.

Err... no it isn't.

A semi-automatic airgun is considered by the CPS an airgun and is covered by airgun legislation not by part 5 firearms legislation and is limited to 12 ft lbs as per an air rifle.

Thought for a minute Candyman was producing his WA 2000 - I'd pay that for one of those! smile.gif

Springer mechanism's a bit of a shame, although probably good for snipers.

Cheers.

Oh Cor Blimey Bruce!

And just when I when I was planning on buying a bolt action anyway...
Can using the student loan be justified.......

I have to say I'm more intrigued on what they'll build next, .50cal sounds great!

Nice to see more custom shops about!

how the hell are you going to comfortably cock a 450FPS spring with that diddy little cocking handle??
they should have done it properly like candyman and made it a GBB.

Have to admit - that was the first thing I thought as well.....

Surley it can't be that difficult to make airsoft weapons that use CO2 capsules or pre-charged pneumatic systems for power? After all, companies have been making very good quality air rifles powered by such means for years.....

Cocking a 450fps spring is anything, but hard... The problem starts with heavier springs.

That depends largely on the shape of the bolt, the WA2000 bolt is a world away from your "normal" bolt.

Perhaps someone with an APS Type 96 can shed some light on this? Seeing as thats what its based around (its in the news story)

Unless of course you mean 'bolt handle' which then is really a case of how strong they make it.

i was more thinking about the size of the bolt handle, you'll probably end up pulling that spring with the edge of your hand/finger due to how stubby it is.

my thoughts exactly, why make such a nice gun then use a rubbish/okayish gun for the base unsure.gif .
i would have bought one straight away if it was vsr based, but think i will leave it now sad.gif

okay - at the risk of derailing the thread (and because I'm a bolt-action springer noob) - what's wrong with using an APS vs. VSR action?
