Yeah, I wondered, what do Air Arms clips cost again? Over hear they are E 100, which is a bit ridiculous I think.  |

I would love to get one of these magazine systems for my QB78D.22, I sent off an email asking about shipping charges, and if they ship to Canada, or not.,,What do you guy's think of it??would it be worth the price,,that's roughly $100.00 on this side of the pond,not including a spare magazine which would be another $60.00 ,The whole gun only cost me $140.00, anyway's Gentlemen, I would really appreciate your input on this one, Thank's, Andy. |

| I am unfamiliar with the QB's and the talk of "right handed" or "left handed" magazines is a fuzzy to me- anyone understand what they're talking about? |

I'm sure that the magazine constists of a holding device, and the actual magazine. Left or Right determines from which side you load the Magazine. |

Hi Andy
This is a review for the Air Arms version which is the same apart from the fact that there is one less pellet hole in the mag.
I think it looks OK but the price would put me off, anyway have a look:

Left or right handed? This is what the makers say.
Right Hand is our standard option for right handed users. The gun is cocked with the right hand and the magazine is indexed with the left hand.
Left Hand is our standard option for left hand users. The gun is cocked with the left hand and the magazine indexed with the right hand.
Both hand magazines will fit on the ambidextrous
A right handed user who uses a glove on the left hand could use a left hand magazine - the rifle would be cocked and indexed with the un-gloved right hand.
A right handed user with a side wheel on the left hand side of the gun could use a left hand magazine - the rifle would be cocked and indexed with the right hand.
The opposite combinations are true for a left hand user.

One other thing about Rowan Engineering is that you can only contact them by email, and there have been some issues with people trying to contact them, apart from that the quality of the unit is good.

Thank's, Al,,That was a nice post,,I hope they get back to me soon, and that they don't charge an arm, or a leg for shipping(and that it'll hold Skenco's, or H&N Rund-Kugeln's without any hassle's, ),,It certainly look's like it would be something that I could used too very quickly, ,Anyway's Thank's for that bit of info, Cheer's, Andy. |
