New Crosman Stock Now In!

Here at Drapers Gun Centre we are happy to announce that we have some Brand New Stock in for 2022!

Not wanting to miss out on all the hype the AK1 is now up for sale retailing at £319.99. The Crosman AK1 is a modern twist of the iconic look of an AK-47. Featuring realistic blowback semi-auto action which is powered by dual-powered CO2, this lets the Crosman AK1 fling 4.5mm BBs at 430 fps. The metal frame is covered by a polymer layer which gives it a high durability. The buttstock is adjustable and foldable. The tactical forearm is outfitted with four Picatinny rails for additional accessories. Another 22 mm rail is placed on top of the receiver and will allow you to mount a scope or a red dot sight. The magazine has a capacity of twenty-eight .177 (4,5 mm) calibre steel BBs and you can fill it with the included speed loader.

For those of you wanting more bang for your buck with what you’ve already got, the brand new 100 Round Magazine is now available for the Crosman R1 and DPMS M4! These retail at £89.99 and offer almost 4 times the capacity of the usually magazines for less then the price of two! Make sure you get these fast as we only have a few available.

Finally a trip back in time for those fans of the old west the Crosman Sheridan Cowboys are now back for a limited time last run before they are gone for good. The Sheridans set themselves apart from the other old west competition by offering dual ammo capability so you can fire both bbs and pellets out of the same gun for a fraction of the cost of a Single Action Army! Make sure you bag this bargain before it rides off into the sunset.

All this and much more can now be found both on our website or in store so why not pick up a new plinker for the garden while the weather lasts!

Limited in store offers now available!

As the weather starts to get a little nicer and the cold winter days turn into nice spring mornings we here at Drapers Gun Centre have decided to do a little spring cleaning of ourselves and put together some nice instore limited time offers for our customers. So far we’ve got three fantastic packages to show with more likely on the way and remember these are limited to the stock we have left so once they’re gone they’re gone!

Budget PCP Package: Gamo Boxer

Starting off our new package deals we thought to go for something on the more budget end of PCP packages but still offering something different then what we’ve currently got on the website. The Gamo Boxer offers the BSA forged barrel in a bullpup package complete with a nice wood stock and hard case. We’ve complimented this with a 3-9x40 Cobalt scope from AGS which includes a half mil-dot reticle and flip up scope caps. The package also comes with a tin of BSA Elite pellets and a set of targets giving you everything you need in one purchase to get out and start shooting. As of writing this blog we have two of these left, one in .177 and one in .22 so act fast if you’d like to get in on this amazing offer.

Intermediate PCP Package: Retay Rifles

Moving on to those who want a bit more bang for their buck the Retay Rifles step up to the plate offering lovely turkish walnut and full metal weaver railed action at a fraction of the cost of the competition. To add to this premium feel we’ve included a 4-16x50 Cobalt AGS scope that includes flip up scope caps and a half mil-dot illuminated reticle, we’ve also added some correct weaver mounts to this from wulf. To this package we’ve included the usual set of targets and a tin of RWS Superpoint pellets which all fit in the included hard case.

Premium PCP Package: Brocock Bantam

Finishing off our new instore offers is the Brocock Bantam Sniper HR Hi-Lite Laminate which features a carbon fiber bottle and a gray laminate stock. We’ve added a Vortex Crossfire 3-12x56 that features an illuminated MOA reticle to add to the precaution accuracy of the rifle. We’ve added a padded bag to this to make sure the rifle is easy to transport as well as a tin of RWS Superdomes and Targets allowing you to sight the rifle in before going hunting. This is the last of the Brocock Bantams and Vortex scopes we have in stock making this a truly unique offer!

These offers are only available in store right now so act fast as the stock is going down quick!

Hands on with the KLI Hi Capas

This week we thought we’d bring something a bit different. The brand new KLI Baba Yaga Hi Capa 4.5mm Pistol which bridges the gap between Airguns and Airsoft by being a Hi Capa pistol chambered in 4.5mm.

To those of you who are unaware of what a Hi Capa is and why they are so popular on the airsoft market, here's a quick trip back in time for you. Originally made by STI in the 90s the Hi Capa, then called a 2011, was supposed to be a modernized version of a 1911 featuring a double stack magazine allowing for more shots which would be used in competition shooting. This 2011 design even went so far as to be used by the American Delta Force for a short period of time. After this success it was natural for an Airsoft copy to be made and Tokyo Marui saw the potential of the large magazine to store plenty of Gas thus the Hi Capa was born. Fast forward to modern day and the Hi Capa has seen plenty of use in Airsoft as well as on screen being used in the hands of Kenau Reeves in the popular series John Wick which made this design even more popular.

Getting our hands on the KLI the gang here were immediately impressed by the build quality of the pistol and when firing how awesome the kick is making you really feel like a true assassin on the loose. The ability to add a suppressor was also a nice touch although much like other pistol replicas this was a 14mm CCW thread instead of the usual Half Inch UNF that we see on many airguns however there are plenty of good Airsoft Suppressors on the market that will dampen the sound but we would of really liked to see what the likes of a Weirauch XLK or even a 0DB Suppressor would have been like.

Overall the KLI Baba Yaga and other Hi Capa series offers a good feeling pistol with a fantastic kick and would make an excellent addition to any action movie buff or replica collectors arsenal

New Brocock Sahara XR

A highly practical and versatile Airgun

For 2022 Brocock has added a bright and light carbine to its innovative XR sidelever PCP line-up. Aptly named the Safari XR, it brings a practical sand finish to its proven semi-bullpup XR model, while still retaining all the features that have made the Sniper XR such a firm favourite.

For added functionality, the new Sahara’s thumbhole polymer stock sports an adjustable cheekpiece and butt pad – while stylish moulding panels adorn the grip and forend, that also features a Picatinny accessory rail. Based on the Sniper XR’s action, the Sahara also benefits from a host of technical improvements. Increased power output and one of the highest shot counts in the Brocock range.

Compact and perfectly balanced, the Sahara is very pointable when in the shoulder, with handling further aided by a diminutive frame that measures just 820mm from butt to threaded muzzle. It tips the scales at a mere 3.3kg.

Sahara XR Features include:

Ergonomic sidelever operation
Multiple power settings via side power adjuster
Removable self-indexing 10 shot rotary magazine with single shot tray supplied
Revised hammer and valve assembly
Two-stage trigger
Huma Air Regulator
Resettable safety catch
Ambidextrous polymer stock
Adjustable cheek piece and 2D adjustable butt pad
Picatinny top and forend rails
Barrel shroud with adaptor for second stage silencer

Additionally for the Sniper XR;

Exclusive to Brocock – a factory-fitted Huma-Air Regulator
Twin manometer display (bottle pressure and regulator pressure)
