Q:

Selling opinion

Let’s say you are trying to sell an airgun. It’s one you’ve be struggling with in terms of consistency (trying to get a decent shot string/power curve) and with accuracy (POI moves more than is acceptable across the power curve, but is pretty good within ranges). You’ve disclosed this in your listing and described your troubles in communication with prospective buyers. The gun needs further tuning to balance # of shots vs power etc. The accuracy issue could be more involved.

With all this on the table, someone still wants to buy it as his 1st airgun. He is crossing over from the PB scene, wants something he can shoot at home. But… he’s also looking for quarter size groups at 50yrds (started at 75). I keep saying that I don’t think one is going to do it for you with out more work, but he keeps saying he thinks he still wants it as long as it doesn’t need much and the barrel is good.

Would you sell it to him?
The accuracy issue was not disclosed to me when I bought it….. 🙄

Quarter size at 50 yards…?

Let me guess he doesn’t want to spend more than $500…

Tell him that’s like trying to get quarter size groups at 600 yards with a PB. Your going to have to spend money and time to get there or just lots of money if he is impatient.

You gave full disclosure, make sure you keep copies of the ad and correspondence. Not much else you can do.

If you have described it accurately, been completely honest and he still wants to buy, then sell it.
