Midlife Retro Wizard Jan 10, 2013 #12 Could I get hold of an old Airsporter from somewhere in this day and age? Shaun
NeilM Retrobike Rider Feedback View Jan 10, 2013 #13 Yes, there are a lot of people who collect and trade old airguns and BSA's are always popular as they have made some pretty good guns over the years.

B B77 Senior Retro Guru Jan 10, 2013 #16 Webley Tracker around 85ish would be a fine retro choice, or if you can find one an Air Arms TX200 SR the SR bit is very important....

I think most of them end up in the US and Scandinavia. Obviously people there who know what quality is.
