Just to make the world slightly more confusing than it already was, there seems to be a new air gun brand that is claiming to be the new Theoben.
I thought RAW had bought the old the Theoben business including the designs etc....
Not to be confused with the FX Impact, this company is called "Impact Air" and is based in the old Theoben factory in England. They have hired the old Theoben staff and they are selling PCP guns that look very similar to the Theoben guns. They are also offering to service the old Theoben guns and sell spare parts. They are clearly hoping to trade on a little of the old good will and brand recognition.
The actual rifles seem very unremarkable in the current competitive landscape. They appear to be unregulated and use metal bottles instead of CF. The price in America is as high as some of the FX and Daystate guns but I can't find anything in the product descriptions to give me a clue as to why they think people will pay that much for a brand nobody has heard of. That doesn't mean there isn't a reason. They could be the best thing on this green earth for all I know.
Does anyone here own one, thinking of buying one or know anything about them?
