Auckland Based Air Gunner

I owned a Century for a while and on sold but the trigger stem on the piston broke not long after selling and you can't buy spares for the.... spares can be bought for the LGV and LGUs. Some serious engineering went into them. My old man also has a Parrus. Parrus and Century are seriously grunty but also quiet loud. They come threaded and silencer makes a big difference. Accuracy was very good. Triggers not as refined as Diana / Weihrauch. I would love to shoot a LGU. One just sold on trademe for 1200 without rings or a scope.

Just a quick search and wow!
Walther arn't mucking around. Cheers for that Pauly, I can't believe I haven't been aware of them.
A lot more investigation required.
Any one owned or shot one? Pistol rifle, springer, pcp, gas I'd be keen to hear what the verdic was both build and proformance.
A review of one would be great.
See they make pellets too.

Walther is a new one to me. Didn't know they made air rifles. Friggen awsome I'll off to Web them up. Learn a bit, see if like what I see and ponder the possibility.

(with that little burst of excitement I suddenly realised I've formed an addiction, oh well could be worse ones)

I think the English made Webley are collectable. Not the Turkish. I could be wrong though.
There are 3 top springers around. Weihrauch, Air Arms and Walther lgv/lgu.
These top springers tend to only come in .22 and .177, although I've seen an HW97 in .20. The power of these tend not to go over 15 - 20 ft/lb, but are lovely and good hunters at 12 ft/lb.
If you want collectable, buy quality engineering that will last, and those that know will know and they will hold value.

The 130 is not a rifle you should be considering, It is a rifle for an experienced shooter.
