Hello all.
I have read the forums in depth so before I start I just want to clarify - I'm not some new Airsoft enthusiast who is interested in sniping and going all Mark Whalberg. (Not that that's inherently wrong - each player plays their own game but if the advice is against it...)
What I am looking for is a bolt action rifle. Spring powered ideally, which can be used for back garden plinking. I'm looking to get my kids into shooting at a very basic level and, if they enjoy it I can then progress to Airsoft if they enjoy it or onto a range if they decide they just enjoy target shooting.
I am on a budget too (planning a wedding and although my missus is very forgiving and understanding, dropping a fortune at this moment on a more upmarket rifle is out the question). £100 is about my upper limit.
I know I could buy a CYMA ZM51 for that a cheap scope and it's job done. But, again I'd rather not buy something that will break in a few weeks and if my kids enjoy shooting then I want something that can develop (we can upgrade and tinker with) which will be good for their mechanical knowledge. And when they're older they can take up Airsoft then if they're interested like mentioned.
So basically I am looking on here second hand for a bolt action spring sniper that's not going to break immediately, for about £100 with scope. (I've approached a few sellers but most don't respond/post items)
Any advice from the community about what to buy or avoid would-be greatly appreciated as you have the knowledge. And any questions sent my way I'm willing to field.
Cheers
