I bought this gun second hand complete with original box and instructions and although overall i like this gun it does have a few quirks.
The safety catch is on the wrong side and can't be easily released once you are ready to shoot.
The trigger guard has quite sharp edges that cause some discomfort after shooting for a while. The sight adjustment is not notched and this gives the feeling that it can be easily knocked off zero (i know this can be remedied but it still irritates)
I bought thi ...

The 240 is one of my favorite pistols. The pistol is accurate. I can hit a 1 1/2 inch field target kill zone from 25 yards. Practice is required to shoot the 240 accurately. I've had no mechanical problems. A friend of mine had to return two 240s because the "T" shaped barrel latch broke on each pistol. I wish I had bought a 240 in .22 caliber.

My wife bought me a BSA 240 Magnum in .177 caliber a few years ago, and this pistol is great! I looked and it appears that they are no longer manufactured, and this is sad, because it's an excellent air pistol. The one thing I did not like about it was the way the sights are adjusted. I prefer click adjustments. However, on all my handguns, once I find the most accurate load, I generally put a dab of glue on the sights to ensure that they don't get "accidentally" adjusted out of alignment by ...
