Rapid Air Weapons. These guns deserve to be popular over here.
They just need pushing from there importer.
Built on the proven Thoeben platform with all the modern updates. Carbon fibre bottles, air gauge,Quick fill and some really nice stock choices.
Built by a small team and every gun tested by the owner. A good website with all the spare parts.
Custom orders and good power levels for FAC.

Potters had the bench rest model, over 3 grand for a rifle that's built for a discipline that's not even popular here, not sure about the thinking behind it, importing it I mean, not the build.
They may still have it, not sure.
I've seen and shot them while with Michael Tawn, the build quality is outstanding.
Stocks are made and finished in house, a true custom gun for factory production money.
Albeit a lot of factory money.
You get what you pay for.
100's of PCP's deserve to be imported here, not quite sure when it'll catch on, I've been here since 94, and to say things have moved slowly would be an understatement.

They certainly look the goods. But the US dollar is the killer. Turns out to be a very expensive firearm. To much trouble to import yourself.

Gav I did call potters and they can get whichever model I wanted but somewhere between 3300-4000 and I thought would be nice but decided to go with the air arms based on the fact I only need so much accuracy too 60 yds , after our discussion it was hard not to want one though

Yes they do work out to be expensive.
Mark you will have to put a few photo's of that beauty when you get it.

I grabbed a new s510 but what I did was call the importer and they were kind enough to let me go to there warehouse and pick the one I wanted , when I got there they had 5 walnut stocks layed on a bench and every walnut 510 they had in stock in a room for me to look at , I found one that looks like a 15000 dollar perazzi shot gun
I grabbed the serial number and rang Chris at abbellas who contacted them and they delivered it that afternoon , (I must say the service from Chris, Anthony and Adrian at abbellas is always a pleasure to deal with ) look forward to getting it
