    Heard a few bad reports about new BSA guns, it seems they have a few QC issues. 3 weeks is an awfully long time to correct their mistake!

    hi sorry to hear but I know loads of chaps who have had faults with various BSA guns inc Tactical as its now spanish made and the R10 even new R10's are still faulty!! I would only buy older BSA guns - they are following there neighbours Webley by producing crap! More interested in making huge profits than making great rifles.

    All of the PCP's are made in Birmingham. Most of the springers are made in Spain.
