AH! a Labour Party Policy for airgunners :lol:

It seems strange that these dealers are in countries like Germany, Holland etc. Hardly poor countries.
When our dealers sell to us it costs us more, when a E.U. dealer sells to us it costs us less, can't be right on any level.

The best he could do was add a tin of H and N pellets,I couldn't help but notice his new Defender complete with a private plate parked outside.



his new defender wont be from selling air guns believe me :( :( :( .

Fair comment, I'd have to admit the dealer in question is also a large scale arable farmer,it was the 10% claim that annoyed me.

we pay more than the E.U because we pay the highest tax rate ever invented. we pay tax on fresh air. and that's no joke. when you take your divers tank to get a refil thay will charge you VAT. so you are paying tax on fresh air. anyway can someone tell me where in the e.u I can get my ftp900 when I get one. :mrgreen:

Can't be that as the U.K. has one of the lower VAT brackets of 20%.(don't buy from Hungary, 27%)

Don't know where you can get your FTP900 supplied from in the E.U. but perhaps a bit of research could save you some cash.

If you buy a pump it will cost you nothing to fill your cylinder :lol:

It's a free market, I mean we are getting all the European workers coming here, why not get any product from there as well.
