    Frankonia are doing them in Germany for 580 euros. A lot more than in America where the recommended retail is 400 dollars (365 euros), and they reckon they will be discounted to 350-360 dollars (330 euros). Rip off europe strikes again. They are made in Austria for heaven sake.

    In the German speaking regions it's seen as an essential part of a hunters equipment, not for taking the initial shot but as the safest and most humane way to put down an animal that wasn't killed immediately.

    Ah but they are civilised countries, not gangsters thiefdoms like here.

    I don't know to be honest. Checking online, the 44 retails around $360 in America, which using the google currency converter is about 310 euros :confused:.

    Oh! They have plenty of them now as well, courtesy of Frau Merkel inviting in all sorts of "doctors and lawyers" from all parts of the World,to culturally enrich Germany:rolleyes:.
    So much so that parts of Berlin are now ruled by family gangs from Albania and other "Stan" countries,that make our lot look like a very small little families indeed,and so much that the Berlin police have technically ceeded these areas to their control. Picture our traveller weddings,three times the size with firearms of all types being openly displayed and fired off in a built up area of Berlin,Bagdad unload style.

    Of course these dangerous people who advocate the end of the German state,and advocate stockpiling food and water for pandemics and whatnot are thourghly investigated and apprehended by the German secret service and police for not having the right political views and access to firearms...
    Reich citizens,preppers,and gun owners who might like a "radical FB post that is... cant be upsetting these ethnic minorities over there and their quaint customs and professions can we?:rolleyes:

    You'll be paying more than 80 quid for one haha

    Fella down my local range has one. Looks like great fun but not the most accurate

    The Americans reckon the Taurus .22 pistols are better value and more accurate. I'm not jumping until i see how this lead crap pans out.

    Have you watched 22plinkster youtube video on the 44. I think he tells it as it is.
