    I have recently purchased a 177 HF spitfire and must say it is a very accurate rifle and offers great value for money it is also a very inexpensive way to get into the world of PCP's it is a fantastic hunting tool. 2 hours after purchase I had downed two woodies with minimum time used to zero, the one thing that baffles me is why have they used the maxigrip scope rail as there is no recoil from this rifle and that was what it was introduced for, to reduce the effects of recoil....apart from tha ...

    I got the BSA Spitfire, as my mate has its little brother Lightning. It's the best gun I've ever used. It's way better built than the Falcons.

    The BSA Spitfire is an awesome air rifle. I'm using a volumetric silencer and a Walther 6x40 Mildot IR scope 30mm tube with great low light condition setup. It is nice and easy to fill, cock, and has a great trigger release, even my young sister and girlfriend find its weight and size easy to get on with. The wood quality isn't a problem as mine is fully camo painted, which is great for hunting. One hole groups easy. If one pops up buy one!

    The BSA Spitfire Cracking hunting rifle! simple to use and re-fill but low shot count per re-fill. Mine kept ruining my bottles because the pin in the rifle was slightly off centre. BSA refused to help in the end my local gun shop replaced the gun for me.

    I use my BSA Spitfire K in .22 with Bisley Magnum pellets and a Walther 3-9x56 illuminated reticule for all my day and night hunting. It produces spot on 12ft lbs and is one of the best air rifles I have ever owned, rabbits out to 40 metres,no problem, crows, pigeons, rats, squirrels all out to 45 metres again stone dead first shot. As a professional pest controller I would recommend this rifle to any serious hunter or target shooter as it's accuracy is amazing.

    The BSA spitfire is an excellent Air Rifle, astonishingly accurate, and with the BSA silencer extremely quiet. The break barrel only needs to be pulled down a few inches to cock. The action is a precharge pneumatic and uses compressed air from a small 200cc buddy bottle. U screw the buddy bottle into the bottom of the gun, and using a guage built into the top of the gun u unscrew the bottle when the gun is full. U get 25-30 shots per squirt and a total of 110-120 per bottle. The trigger is ...

    I have recently bought the BSA Spitfire K (H.F) and I am very pleased with my purchase... this gun is accurate, powerful (around 12ft/lbs) and It has a sound moderator plus when you get a decent scope on top it looks brilliant.. I bought my rifle for under £200 from a gun shop. I did not want to purchase my rifle from a mail order company, even though it may be the cheapest option, you cannot be guaranteed a good after sales service if a problem arises.. The BSA Spitfire (H.F) can be f ...

    I bought the Spitfire as an entry level rifle to the world of pcp's to see what all the fuss was about. Amazing, easy cocking, just break the barrel slightly with ease and load a pellet, aim & shoot. The pellet will go where you aim it upto 50yds. Beyond that the pellet starts to drop. You can drop quarry with confidence at upto 35 even 40yds in 12lb setting. I believe that the rifle can be easilly tuned to 17/18lb but you would need a FAC for it. Overall the best value for money pcp rifle you c ...

    The BSA spitfire is a rifle that I had to save up £300 in total to buy - which includes a pump and 3-9 by 40 scope. I have been using air rifles for a few years now, and there is nothing quite like it! If you have any problems with the accuracy, they will be coming from the scope; my next buy is going to be a parallux adjustable one. I went shooting earlier today, at 15m I easily achieved a 7-shot one hole group. At 30m, I also was getting one hole groups with occasional flyers. Even with ...

    I am using this BSA Spitfire air rifle for the pest control work i am doing at the moment along with the firebird. I did initially buy the firebird at first for short range ratting work but, with being so amazed with the accuracy of the firebird carbine, i started using it for all my shooting as it was so light. Then i decided to try the spitfire hf and again was so amazed with the accuracy that i bought the spitfire also. I now use both for a lot of pest control that i do. If you buy one of th ...

    I bought this BSA Spitfire air gun when it first came out, the reason i bought it was because it was such a new idea and it's quite cheap compared to other pre-charged air rifles. But then again, i think pre-charged guns need to be well priced because you need to buy something to charge them with. The pumps and bottles are expensive too, but anyway, when i got it i thought they had sent me a BSA supersport because this gun uses the same design as BSA's break barrel spring guns. But all that ends ...

    The spitfire is superb value for money and is incredibly accurate in field shooting as well as hunting. It loads with ease and is a dream to shoot. I strongly suggest you give it a try.
