Airgun Shooter Magazine November 2012 Retour à l'édition précédente

With the day's getting shorter, it seems fitting that we have two short-barreled airguns starring November's Airgun Shooter. First on the test ranges is Hatsan's new AT-P2 pistol – well, we think it's a pistol anyway. With the included shoulder stock and silencer on-board, it shoots and handles like a compact rifle – at sub 6ft/lbs mind – and might be the perfect tool for close-range ratting. The second of our carbine crackers is the latest upgrade of Brocock's Contour SuperSix PCP, now fitted with a bull-barrel. Can the Midlands-based firm once again improve on what is already an established field-ready rifle?
There's plenty more gear on review, too. Mark Camoccio puts the Weihrauch HW90K and the Benjamin Trail Nitro-Pistol head-to-head, Nick Robbins checks out two Sig Sauer BB-pistols from SMK and Simon Everett gets 'eyes-on' with a Lightstream scope – made by an airgunner, specifically for airgunners.
As always, Mat Manning and Ian Barnett are on hand to go through their month's hunting – with Ian setting out 'The Airgun Hunter's Clock', a handy guide that all hunters should read. There's news, recipes, workshop, letters, readers' ads and a chance to an Air Arms TX200 worth £385. All this and it's not even Christmas yet!
