Actually, I may have gotten two good deals. 
$277 for a Disco with pump (I will sell the pump) and $450 for a Hatsan AT-44-10 which I will go and try to rebuild into a bullpup rifle. What's good about the Hatsan is that you can buy a second cylinder for one, and the cylinder contains the valve so I can easily switch between power.
By the way, over here, that's cheap! :p
I got more back up then previous projects from dutch forum members so I'll probably get a lot further. I hope.
Yup, stuff is looking up for sure! |

They do have some quirks but are reasonably cheap and have a bunch of options. So I'm gonna try some things with it too, like trying to test how much changing a scope will affect impact.
The AT 44-10 also comes with a combo rail, for 11 mm and weaver, so I'm gonna fool around with that too. |

HELL !! They ALL have "quirks" of one kind or another..at least the 15 or so I 've bought in the last year have had 'em  Part of the enjoyment, at least for me, is working all those quirks out, and seeing how much performance can be improved  Keep us posted on the Hatsan if you would...I for one would be very interested in learning more about those guns....TIA. |

Both rifles coincidentally ended up with the same person. Moi.
De S400 has been transformed into a HFT rifle. Fitted an extra stud for a sling and dropped an MTC Viper 10x44 on it. I need to clean the barrel thoroughly as it'll only shoot lead free from now on (environment, blah blah). De S400 is my second AirArms, my other is an S410 XtraFAC which now carries a 24" BSA barrel.
De Lightning XL...well, it has a beech stock now and it'll likely stay as is. The synthetic stock has been fitted under my first XL which has a gasspring fitted. Next up is putting a .22 barrel on the thing so I have both calibers. Broom's is my 5th BSA.
I've had an AT44 and couldn't get along with it. Traded it for a Diana ("RWS") 54 in .22. A very good deal, IMO. |

Guess who scored a pretty cheap rifle and who will be making a thread about one one of these days?
AT 44 has been postponed for a couple of months so that won't be it.  |
