I have an U/S that I bought last year. I want to get a hamster but can't seem to find one specifically for it. I do find it strange there isn't anything even on the AA website.
The hamster for the HFT500 looks like the right type to me, but will this fit an U/S correctly, does anyone know..?

Give AirArms a ring. Shiela will sort you out. You could also try Derek or Dave at Rowan Engineering who make some cracking stuff.

Thanks. For future reference I also spoke with AA who confirm that the HFT500 hamster will fit. I've ordered one today and so will report back in a couple of days.

Hi Flappa30. Good to see you're sorted Hamster-wise. I'm in the same boat... Did you order yours direct from AA, or someone else? Please name and the price paid, if you wouldn't mind.
Cheers

Chap,

Purchased mine from airgunspares.com £98.50 + I paid the £8.75 for next day delivery. It arrived as promised. I looked around and the few places that sell it, all seem to be about the same price. It's a lot, but it is well made and as I say fits perfectly. I need to use in anger as it were, but straight away it feels great. It has a good length so should suit most people. The hole for the gauge is a little elongated to allow for a small amount of adjustment along the rail.

HTH...
