Hello everyone, with the current lockdown and the inability to get out and shoot, I thought this would be a great time to look back at a few of my old pieces; some fun ones, some informative and some like this that got me into so much trouble with the readers. Enjoy – and remember, it was just a bit of fun. Stay safe. Gary
Let me stress that if you are a member of the Health and Safety Executive, you are absolutely not allowed to read this article. Also, never ever try to take a rifle into your local swimming pool because you are liable to upset quite a few people and you might have a very interesting visit by the armed police. I am sure that a huge number of you are wondering why anyone would be so stupid as to take a £1260 electrically operated air rifle seven feet underwater and it’s a very fair question that I will try to answer a little bit later.
Firstly, though, I want to talk about the Daystate Airwolf Tactical. I have been lucky enough to own a few Daystates in my life – a Mk3, a Mk4 and a Huntsman – but there are two that I have always wanted to own; the Sable and the Airwolf. The Airwolf, or ‘Wolf’ as it is better known, has always had the reputation of being the ultimate hunting airgun, boasting a stunning electronic trigger and a 400cc buddy bottle, giving it a 250 shot capacity in .177 and over 300 in .22.
