    Selling my excellent MP95E 22 target pistol. Comes boxed with three magazines and bits etc. Used to do well in competition with it, but suffering progressive sciatica so selling. I've shot 1/4" to .5" groups at 25m with a scope on top. This pistol is highly accurate, features better inline recoil than Walter or Hammerli for fast follow up shots in speed comps.

    Looking for 650 euro for a fast sale. The stock is a wonderful bit of walnut designed for right handed use, with palm adjustment shelf via allen bolt.

    Trigger unit detaches for locking away, cleaning and pull/ weight adjustment.

    This gun has seen very light use and shoots must brands of ammo well. Anyone thats used it has shot well with it and groups to same point of impact for all. I did well in national comps with it, sad to sell, but thats life :rolleyes:

    Very interested in this.

    Can this pistol be inspected or viewed anywhere (or photos at the very least)? Preferably, an inspection at a range to see if this pistol fits me and to observe how it shoots.

    Could we arrange a mutually-suitable venue for an inspection (PM me if you'd prefer? I'm based in Dublin and can be found on the range in Midlands pretty much every given Sunday - but would be happy meet you at another suitable range (Ballyhoura, Harbour House, Hilltop, etc etc) if that would suit you better?

    Thanks.

    Yes it can be viewed, but at one of the three ranges in Munster. I'm not up to traveling to Rathdrum Club at the moment due to my scaitica, But I've shot it at Eagles, Hilltop, etc and did well to ok. :) Buyer will most likely have to travel to Munster to see it though.:)

    this item must sell face to face sale, to license holder willing to license. If I have trouble selling item in a month or two I'll post pictures. That said I'm selling other items without posting pictures already, so looks like the way to go for me.

    That may be because they are of lesser monetary value!:rolleyes::D

    And please don't ask me to give you my phone number and to download some software to my phone so I can view pictures of something I'd genuinely like to buy, if it is what it is. I hate to say it, but the ol' interweb don't work that way. Well, actually the interweb does work that way - but people who look for phone numbers before even identifying themselves by PM or, at the very least, posting pictures of the goods they wish to sell, and who post that other posters should download some app to their phones......well, that doesn't really send out the right signals I'm afraid.

    You may be a perfectly genuine seller, but this is the internet and caution generally takes precedence over benefit-of-the-doubt. If you were a long-term member of boards, this wouldn't be such an issue for me, but from what I can tell you've only just begun posting recently to sell your items. Considering this is the sale of a firearm, my caution-quotient goes up a notch or two.

    BTW There are perfectly good ways to provide pictures online of what you are selling - this site has that facility.

    I really don't follow you: How can the prospective buyer have a licence for this pistol, before you even agree the sale?:confused: Am I missing something?

    Thanks. Am happy to travel to B'Houra to inspect this - However, it's a VERY LONG 5-Hour round-trip to make without even having seen some pics of this item. As lad's will tell you, I'm far from a tyre-kicker when it comes to making firearms purchases, but I really would like some visual indication (i.e. a photo) to show the general condition of the benelli. For all I know, it could be out-of-the-box shiny new OR it could equally be a heap of junk that's never been cleaned with the sights bashed to sh1te, a trigger that doesn't work, and grips that have been gnawed by a werewolf - I don't know because I only have your word for it, and I don't know you. Do you see my dilemma?!

    The asking price (whilst very competitive) is still a couple of hundred euro short of a grand and it really isn't IMO too much to expect to see a pic or two, before making a 5 hour round-trip on the off-chance that the goods are what you say they are: I'm not doubting your honesty or the veracity of what you say the goods are - but seriously, I don't know you from Adam so I only have your online word to rely on.

    This is a firearm I'd be purchasing - not a can of fanta.
    Ballyhoura, if your traveling there contact me and I'll bring it there. Please give me your phone number.

    Realistically, I'd need to know far more about this pistol and your goodself, before I give out my phone number - At this point, you have no previous track-record on this forum and are unwilling/unable to post pictures of the items - Of course any transactions would have to face-to-face and preferably in a public location (i.e. in an RFD's), but put it this way: From all the information to hand, I cannot say for 100% certain (based on the information to hand) that you're not some crazy waiting to ambush me for nefarious reasons! I'm not paranoid (much:D) but considering what it is that I wish to buy and the sum of money involved and the nature of the goods, I'd be far happier if you would take the time to be a wee bit more forthcoming with information and less obscure about the whats, whys, and wherefores of what you are selling and to whom you will sell it too.

    BTW, as you don't know me from adam either, I do have a "couple" of FAC's to my name. But the details of what these are and my phone number is not information I'm going to divulge to an anonymous poster.

    Look, it really looks like this is waaaaayyyyy to much hassle to get information from you (much less to do a deal) - it's a pity, because I'm not a tyre-kicker, a time-waster, and in fact do have the cash in my back-arse pocket specifically to purchase a .22 pistol - but I'm really not interested in this back- and fro-ing and distinct lack of information. Sorry but I'm out. Thanks.

    Thanks for your opinion & showing an interest for awhile. Cheers

    Selling a real cracker of a target pistol, gun is in excellent condition,
    Comes with case and three magazines.

    Sights are fully adjustable as is the trigger.

    Model Benelli MP95E.

    The stock is walnut and has better inline recoil feature than either the Walter or Hammerli.

    This week I'm dropping the price for one week only from 650 to 620.
    Thats a 30 quid saving.

    I often placed exceedingly well at national competitions with this pistol.
    It pointed very naturally single handed on to target for me and others who used it.

    It has built in regular scope rail plus an additional weaver rail on the top, so your able to mount a pistol scope, on or off with easy if needed.

    It never seemed fussy about which brand of ammo it used, that said I always fed it only well branded stuff out of respect for its very accurate barrel.

    I'm willing to whatsapp pictures, but not post here, unless it takes more than a few months to shift.

    I'm really looking for a buyer within the Munster area if at all possible, it's easier for all parties all round, what with collecting from RFD etc,

    Buyer must be a a license holder already, and a member of a Garda approved target club/range.:)

    This week I'm dropping the price by 30 euro discount on both my Parkerhale 1200TX - M82 7.62 rifle, 550.00 down to 520.

    and

    On my Benelli MP95E 22 pistol I'm offering a price drop of 30. euro again, same deal, but from 650 euro down to 620.

    Please checkout older adds which are now back on line.

    I live in Kerry, so I'm really seeking buyers from within the Munster area if at all possible, what with collection at the RFD, viewing etc, its just handy for me. I'm willing to email or whatsapp pictures to those that are interested.

    Cheers :)
