That's when I stumbled upon the recall notice. Turn around time was great at about 10 days total. Function check on all guns was postive but will need to have my friends shoot them a bit to verify. Also I've mounted a BSA red dot and never had any issues with the recoil forcing it to move. I just received my 4 Browning 800s back from Umarex for the recall.

Should think it would easily humanely despatch rats and ferals at under 15m. Definately worth the asking price for an all year round, low running cost pistol.

Shots well out of the box at around 5.7 ft lb. Going to try fitting a bsa edge scope on high clamps...anyone got any comments on that combination?

Iput a few drops of oil in to lube the gun up and now the gun has fired 3 times out of 20 when I pull the barrel up into the fire position.My finger has been off the trigger. Any ideas?
