Yes that's correct, sold it last weekend to another guy with his name spelt exactly the same as yours. I can now move around my shed (and indoor shooting range) without having to worry about damaging the paintwork....

Welcome to the forum Bryan.  It's a very useful tool for those of us interested in Airguns.

I'm no expert by any means, but knowing what I do now and if I were in your position again, I'd spend the extra to buy a decent quality brand.

You can't go wrong with a Weihrauch or air Arms and I do like my Cometa Fenix 400.

From my personal experience (meaning I bought one, hated it and sold it) I wouldn't buy another Norica, Stoega, Benjamin or Air Chief.  That leaves a few others such Diana, BSA, Hatsan, Umarex, Beeman  and Crosman that I have no experience with.  It's also possible the more expensive of the Benjamin range may be OK.

I'm sure that there are plenty of members with far more experience than me who will chirp in and help narrow the field down for you.

Thought I had better introduce myself before asking newbie questions (after a search).

Had a Game air pistol in my youth and found it very accurate and fun to use. However when the seals finally perished I was unable to buy new replacements, Youngs Airguns were unable to help. 
No internet then so after many phone calls I had to throw it away (very sad).

Now I am looking for an .22 air rifle (not PCP) for targets and rodents. Got quite keen on the "Gamo Swarm 10x Gen3i" but when doing research found a few cons that existed and the memories of the pistol seals.

So I have been looking at more traditional makes on the web and available in NZ. Getting more confused by the minute.
Angry The Diana 350 N-tech looks exiting as does the Weihrauch 80 SL. Both are at the limit of funds (allowing for a poss scope).
I am not asking for help (although thoughts on the matter from you more expert members would help)Wink.
Just introducing my self.
Regards
Bryan.
