Air Arms have introduced three nice new rifles into their range.
The FTP900, the HFT500 and the Ultimate Sporter. Could they add to these with a sub 12FPE Semi-auto ?
It would be a nice addition to their 3 new rifles.

tbh. Im not a fan of semi-auto. the fx semi-auto is as ugly as john terry lifting the prem lge title. also speed shooting a semi-auto will make at best 4inch groups.

No problem with accuracy. The lads using them for LSR appear to like them. Mr Steyr was shooting clays with one
Reports from people who have them say the accuracy is outstanding.

I saw a vid from teds hold over on the semi-auto fx. the gun was spot on. but as soon as he speed shot it the groups were bad. seems like they are fine if you give a little time between shots. but ted shot his like a uzi

No problem with the legality of sub12FPE air rifles in this country.
Air rifles not classed as "Specially dangerous" are not subject to Section 5 restrictions, or for that matter Section 1. They are excluded.
