Review Centre Reviews
Over 150 reviews at this site and the vast majority of them are happy to recommend the BSA Lightning. Many describe it as superb and the best valued air rifle available. Super light and highly crafted and highly accurate is the consensus opinion of a vast number of owners who have reviewed it at Review Centre. In fact the verdict is the BSA Lightning is just a superb quality gun from a longstanding manufacturer with a good reputation. The addition of the silencer is an advantage for many. However, we have received reviews from a few reviewers who have experienced mechanical faults and in particular have had trouble fitting an accurate silencer. Read individual reviews for tips on this as well as advice about the best pellets to use.
