I had 2 of the SLR,s I had one for me and one for my grandson. He enjoyed it for a couple of years then he got the PCP bug like the rest of us and both the guns became safe queens.
So as I want to make a change in my AG line up they went on the market.
The SLR in my book is one of the great "Air spring" rifles in the world. With proper TLC I had great sport from them. Only ever had one problem with one gun the ram started to leak just after I bought it because it had not been used for over a year, but Lewis worked his magic and it came back as new. The guys that bought them will still get years of shooting from them.
Have a Merry Xmas mate.

Re: Looking for a Beeman SLR98
I first shot one about 8 years back in Port Noarlunga when I did a coupla weeks pro pigeon shooting with my mate Paul down there. I had the Xcally and a couple of Beemans at the time, but swore that if ever there was going to remain just one AG in the safe, it would be a 98.
Devastated i missed out here....
Thanks for the tag back anyway Ray.

Re: Looking for a Beeman SLR98
Hey Ben! How are things..........Long time mate.
Yes the other SLR was a Right Hand stock. Funny but the Left Hand stock gun sold very quickly.
Obviously there are still plenty of SLR lovers out there looking,both guns were sold within 3 weeks of advertising them.
I reckon Rob Potter would sell a few if he gets them in.
Have a Happy New year mate,
Cheers,
Ray

Re: Looking for a Beeman SLR98
Hey Thwaakk , did you chase up the SLR98 on used guns,its one of the later long barrel guns should be a good one.
