Good Points: Light weight, accurate, easy to handle
Bad Points: None so far
General comments: This is my first air rifle, bought with a 4-9x40 Hawke mil-dot scope + BSA bag + pellets, all for £250. The first time I tried it on 'zeroing range', I was quickly hitting 30mm size targets at 40 yards. I actually like the sharp 'crack' it makes on firing, and the recoil - it feels like a proper gun, not the sophisticated neutral feel you get from the more expensive guns I've since tried. All round then, I think it's brilliant - I looked at all sorts of other guns before buying and this one really stood out for the money.

I have had this weapon for many years, and is only now needing attention (15 years later!)

Over all it is a great rifle to use ideal for small game very accurate and easy to fire. It has a very good safety switch that in the past 17yrs that I have owned it it has never let me down.

Overall good looking gun, you can feel the quality hope to have plenty of fun with it will keep you posted. Very accurate with open sites. Just about to shoot with tele sites, great feel good factor with this gun you know when youv'e shot it, sounds fierce and the thud of the ammo as it hits the mark is pretty impressive too.

Hi all
I own a Supersport .22 16flbs when i first got it i put a scope and mounts on it after about 500 shot the recoil in the gun made a mess of the mounts and kept knocking my zero out. So i bought a Sportsmatch Dampa mount now it works a treat very accurate have been killing a lot of rabbits with just the other day i hit one at around 40 metres killed it outright. Very good accurate gun with the right mounts on it.

This gun has quite a fierce clang when you pull the trigger so if you chose to ruin the lines of this stylish little number, mount scopes on it that can cope.
The first thing I did when I got my gun was to modify the open sights. The standard Lego brick sights are ok if you are going to shoot at giant targets.
This is not the gun to buy if you like hitting the target every time but its redeeming qualities make it stand out from the crowd. It has style and character.
I have a couple of f ...

My Supersport is fitted with an AGS scope and silencer, i use it at my local air gun club where most people these days use .177, there are a few of us who like our multi-purpose .22.
We can still hit all those knock down targets on the plinking range as well as those .177 owners.
Overall the Supersport is a reliable no frills full power hunter which can still hold it's own on the plinking range. Keep it .22!

I have a Supersport/lightning that has been tuned by SFS by the previous owner. The gun when tuned shoots very accurate and also nice and quiet (ideal for hunting).
The feel of the rifle is great and the trigger is fine for me. I was told to use H&N FTT pellets which I did for about a month then when I went to buy more they had none in so I thought Id have a go with RWS Superdomes and boy what a pellet these are, I`m hitting nearly everything I aim at. So I`m glad the shop never had the FTT ...

The BSA Supersport is a great little gun. I first bought one back in the early 80s and now have acquired another .22, although it needed a new piston head and breech seal and a guy from the Longford range did it for a very reasonable price.
With the right pellets, they are devastatingly accurate and deliver more than enough power to dispatch small game at useful ranges, between 25 and 40 yds. The gun I have now is 13 years old and is still knocking rabbits over at 35 yds +.
The only down ...

For many months I had been looking through endless gun mags and web sites trying to find the gun for me. Finally I rested upon either a BSA Super Sport or a Lightning. After much thought and consideration I opted for a .177 Supersport as it was far cheaper and there was no obvious advantages with the Lightning apart from the shorter barrel. I ordered it from JS Ramsbottom.com and I had it two days later. As soon as I had unwrapped it I attached a leapers 3-9 x 40 scope and BSA mounts. I got the ...

I've had the BSA Supersport rifle for 2 months. This little rifle is GREAT.
When I decided too buy a new rifle. I tested a lot of different brands eg. Gamo (almost all models), Webley Xocet, Weihrauch (way too expensive), Hatsun Mod70, BAM40 and a few other Chinese rifles. Eventually I settled for the BSA Supersport (.177)
The woodwork and craftmanship on this rifle is nice, not awesome, but better than most other guns in the same price range. The balance is amazing, if you carry the rifle ...

I got my BSA Supersport today and it's great. It's my first air rifle and I can shot cans at 30 yards with open sights. I don't have a scope because I don't think it's needed as the open sights are so accurate. I got the .22 version and with it got through one side of a can and out of the other. It's a good weight you know you have a good Britsh gun in your hands but it's not too heavy. I think I will have many years of fun with this gun.
I bought my gun from Clay Shooters in Market Harborou ...
