Ah, that must be Mario's website.

That was another TX....a TX 200SR (semi-recoil, like a Diana 54) Mk.2 with walnut stock.
Didn't know you never got to use it.
Story of my life, at least where airguns are concerned.

Even if you have 65k please don't pay the scalpers that much. Since you are a frequent traveller to the USA bring a nice one in with yourself. With the proper paper work it will be pretty okay.

i assume the cost is high in india due to the shipping cost involved, higher duties we owe to the govt,plus the profit a dealer wud love to crack.

Gsmith (Pune) quotes 48k for the 54 AirKing...

The biggest reason is the fact that commercial imports are still banned!

Once commercial imports happen, prices will come down to international levels. As wilth all other products.
