    Used and Secondhand Airguns in the UK: A Guide to History and Popular Models

    Whether you're experianced shooter or a newcomer to the sport, secondhand airguns offer a cost effective way to enjoy target practice, pest control or plinking without compromising on quality. In the UK, the airgun market is rich with history and innovation and used pre-owned models often retain excellent performance and character. This guide explores the legacy of airguns, the benefits of buying secondhand, and key models available today.


    The History of Airguns in the UK

    Airguns have a long and storied history, dating back to the 16th century. In the UK, their popularity surged in the 20th century with iconic brands like BSA, Webley and Air Arms. These manufacturers set benchmarks in quality, precision and craftsmanship. Many older models are still in use today, making them highly sought after by collectors and practical shooters alike.

    Classic British models such as the Webley Tempest pistol and BSA Meteor rifle remain respected for their robust build and dependable accuracy. These historic airguns laid the foundation for today's thriving secondhand market.


    Why Choose a Secondhand Airgun?

    There are several advantages to buying a used or pre owned airgun:

    • Affordability: Get high-quality brands for a fraction of the cost of new models.
    • Availability: Access discontinued or vintage models no longer in production.
    • Proven Performance: Many secondhand airguns are well maintained and tested in real world conditions.

    Buying secondhand also gives you access to fully tuned or customized setups that might be more expensive if bought new and modified separately.
