Armex X10 Avenger

[dales]

Hi all,

Thought I'd show off my new toy that originally I wasn't going to get. Due to webley not being able to churn out raider 10's quick enough I deceided that I would like a BSA ultra instead however the dealer told me he did not want to sell any at the moment as they have had a couple of them back faulty. I was then recommended the armex which I took even though it was a tad more expensive.

I must say I am very pleased with it and it shoots lovely. Titchgamer has helped me out with it and has also written a very good review on his.

Now to try and find some good weather and opportunity to go out and play with it.

I bought an Armex X10 Avenger in .22 a few months back and really liked it, well balanced and a pleasure to shoot, beautiful stock, unfortunately I sold it as I had a couple minor glitches with it. The first one was that the design of the magazine was good but I would get a sore finger as I fire a lot on the plinking range and was getting a sore finger as it is recommended to index the magazine once inserted prior to firing just to ensure that the 1st pellet indexes correctly. Also I could not get to grips with the sweet spot, I tried to get it regulated but as it is a new rifle fresh out of the factory I could not find anyone to regulate it. It may be the case that someone out there could regulate it for me but I tried Tench etc etc. Anyway had I been able to sort out it's sweet spot even though it was in .22 and the sharp edges on the magazine hadn't caused a issue I would never have sold this cracking Gun, I did like it. I had to dig deeper as I then bought a Daystate MK4 IS MCT in .177. Incidentally both rifles are in the Thumbhole stock option.....

Just out of curiosity how did you manage to hurt your finger?

When I was taking it down the farm regular I was going through 10-20 mags a night and never had a problem even in the sub zero temperatures (last crimbo actually LOL)

As for the regulateing I never found the need but I never target shoot any more LOL

I would hunt, which was not a problem, but when I was target shooting I could go through a lot of pellets, so when I would load the Mag then index it a few turns I found that the same part of my thumb's flesh was getting a bit tender (wimp or what lol lol) anyway not a major issue but just one I thought to mention. As for the rifles accuracy, don't get me wrong this is a brilliant gun, however I bought it in .22 rather than .177 and this combined with the lack of it being regulated frustrated me in that getting the sweet spot was harder work, just a bit of a lazy git so that is why I bought a Daystate MK4 IS MCT, more cash but like the gun.....
