It depends what you want it for really,small vermin or target shooting.
plenty of cheap ones around try www.irishguntrader.ie or www.sportsden.ie for a good range.
next you will need to apply for a firearms certificate for it as all airguns are classed as firearms.
I got a baikal izh-61 for 130 euros and it does fine at close range for rats but it depends how much you are willing to spend,you can go up to and over 1000 euros for a really top of range gun.
decide what you wnat it for and how much you are willing to spend and go from there.
dont forget to add 80 euro for licence which lasts for 3 years and gun safe also.

i had one of those and it cracked along the grip for no reason,never dropped or abused,also found it a bit noisy,,loud spring twanging when fired,even from new.
dont think they make that model anymore either.

All I can say is this ones not cracked and has taken plenty of critters both fur and feather. Don't know if they still make them but parts are not a problem.
