BAIKAL IZH 38 .177 AIR RIFLE FOR SALE

Good basic .177 airgun - break barrel. Iron sight

Shoots okay but the barrel may need a bit of truing. Beyond my skills.

A plinker that needs a bit of a tinker (hence the price).

£30 - face to face only/cash only. I'm in West Yorkshire.

£25 for a quick sale, and to get it out of the loft. Face-to-face, cash only. No offers please.

Cheers

Whats the range of it?

 

[kawasemi]

Honestly - I'm not sure. I have shot it on ranges of 20-30 metres only.

That would be reasonable for taking out Rabbits and Squirrels I suppose...I am tempted but have other things to pay for this month (hurray for a git hitting my car whilst it was parked).

If nobody has taken it by Feb 27th, I'll become the proud owner and would pay to cover shipping

Thanks Nephilim - I'll bear that in mind.

NO AGREEMENTS AT THIS STAGE FOLKS - STILL AVAILABLE FACE TO FACE/CASH PAYMENT PLEASE.

Thanks for looking

How accurate is it at 20m? Does it show that the barrel is off?

The sights have been set to compensate (Rear site moved to the extreme left). When I last shot it I was able to hit a target in a standard pellet catcher two badminton courts away. A close look along it and you can see the misalignment.

If a potential/serious buyer is local to me I'm happy to meet up so they can have a go.

A .177 air rifle is not really the tool for rabbits and squirrels unless you can make accurate headshots with it. This sounds like it would be much better suited to shooting beer cans off the garden fence, which is a delightful and worthy pursuit.

 

[Docherty]

A 177 is perfectly capable of dispatching rabbits, squirrels, pigeons and any other legal air rifle quarry in the UK but as Keithlard says, head shots. Having said that, I only take head shots with my 22.

air rifles all come down to who makes them - there will be a world of difference between an SMK 177 and a BSA 177

You are both absolutely right chaps. This is plinker and I would say not accurate enough (without a bit of servicing - hence the price!!!) for a humane dispatch.

...but please, this is a sales thread. Can discussion be saved for elsewhere? Your info is useful but I have been very upfront about the item I am selling from the outset.

Can we reserve the thread for sales please? As I have said, I am happy for a potential buyer to pm and we can arrange a try out.

Many thanks

[nephilim]

Ah if it won't be good enough for humane dispatch then ill withdraw. Purely because I get loads of rabbits and squirrels in my gardens and want to dispatch of them quickly whilst adding to my furs and pot.

Another look in - still for sale

Please don't post a discussion in this thread - pm if there are any questions and I will add the answer if pertinent to the sale - thanks.
