Once u have a valid license to purchase, shops will still sell air rifles ?
Thanks
You can purchase as usual for now. Shops will still sell cause they wouldn't want to lose on the stock they got already.

Once you have your permit you can buy.

What I am forseeing here is some power is tring to corner the market. First they ban the importation then stocks will dry and put seller put of bussiness.
Then after some some months or years the COP will probably grant a person or family to be the sole importer and to sell with a tax concession. You can import on your own but you will be taxed at a higher rate .

It was done will the air conditioning industry where the family of Peaks are given the rights of the sole importer of AC units, they have tax concessions on the importations of AC units

They sell crosman/benjamin and evanix

They are crosman are cheap entry level guns and work like crap mostly

The benjamin are bit better and the marauder is a great entry level pcp

He has a few of the evanix models, not all. But those are high end and prepare to spend a money if you going that route.

Their after sales service is really good, once you carrying YOUR GUN that YOU BUY FROM THEM.

You need to decide if you want a break barrel or pcp compressed air gun first
As well as your budget of course

It has a decent variety locally, allbeit at inflated prices.
Top rated brand will depend on who you ask. Some ppl feel paying more=better, but that ain't the case at all here.
So lemme ask you.
What is it going to be used for primarily? pest control, hunting, plinking or target shooting?
You hung up on price or you want somethng accurate that peforms consistently & reliably & easy is to maintain? or you don't mind needing to fix, adjust or replace something all the time & going back to dealer to spend hundred or thousands on r&m?
What's your average budget?


And lastly, a small piece of advice
stay away from semi auto if you want maximum power or accuracy

:lol:
Then you want a Hatsan. Best bang for the buck pcp on the market here. Easy to work on for yourself, could take plenty licks, very accurate, more powerful than many other brands available locally, cheaper & more reliable than some of the so-called 'high end" options as well. The one major downside, they are heavier than most other options available locally. But a little weight never killed nobody. :lol:

To help you narrow down your options, what's your budget like?

For the one that use recycled air, feeding & cycling issues, limitations on what weights pellets you can use with them, accuracy issues, power levels tend to be a little anemic, they tend to only work best within a VERY limited range of hammer spring tension and operating air pressure. For those that are battery operated, plenty power available, but they usually have accuracy problems from what I've seen.

when they working, they work nice, but when they start to be problematic is real friggin headache.

yeah, it nice. heavy, but nice. & all my remarks still apply.
That gun stock runs at about 23-25 fpe atm with no real way to get more out of it without some modifications.

As opposed to an AT44 that gets the same power stock, but can can much more power and a lot easier to increase easier to increase it with some minor valve mods & adjustments. Or the BT65, that is a whole other monster by itself.

Excellent buy for the money. I have one myself.
just keep in mind, that thing powerful, & loud. So you gonna need a moderator for it if you plan on using it home so you don't disturb the neighbors

they did get stock some months ago, but the way things go they might be out of the semiautomatics by now.
ime agostini stocks don't last long, pcps are the first to finish, then the powerful break barrels.
