Great British Shooting Show 2024 - Air Arms Interview with Claire West - New XTi chassis

I really couldn’t keep away from the Air Arms stand, especially when Claire West kind offered to talk to me about the New XTi chassis and the new branding for Air Arms. We had an amazing chat and she’s such a great ambassador for our sport, and a lovely person too :)

Great video with Claire. She and AA knocked it out of the park again.. Claire is THE BEST. Maybe one day I could get one of those in my shooting hands. BC

Thanks for the comment and totally agree. Claire is such a lovely and accommodating person; and the Air Arms rifles I have are all amazing. I even saw a limited RSN 70 yesterday and I wish I had the money to get it

I have a Air Arms Shamal .177. I have had it brand new from back in 1980 something. I have it so long i don`t remember the year it came out. I am here to tell you that it shots just as good today as it did since I first bought it. So what i am saying is that Air Arms will last you for the rest of your life. Hands down.

Is the air arms logo change? I think I prefer the old one.😮

[@BionicRusty]

There is. They launched it at the show.👍

[@kdm6287]

@@BionicRusty Not the sort of changes I hoped AA would be doing.

[@heithwatkins]

I like the old logo. But as usual. Nobody cares about what I think.

[@kdm6287]

@heithwatkins Well AA should care, they make great rifles, but like all makes aren't perfect. Hope this move isn't the beginning of the end of Air Arms manufacturing/design in UK.

[@paullloyd9902]

why do they call it a hamster?

[@BionicRusty]

Copy and paste from airgunbbs 'When Venom Arms introduced their Trophy stock, Airmasters had no equivalent stock design, ie with a deep for end. Terry Doe asked if something could be added to Emily to deepen the stock pre trigger. Airmasters used a small piece of wood, light in colour and to protect the rifle stock covered the topside of the piece of wood in leather, at the time we saw the work in progress model the leather had not yet been trimmed. So upturned it was the size shape of a hamster and the loose leather gave the whole thing a soft feel hence hamster.'

[@heithwatkins]

​@@BionicRusty Thanks. I never knew this. I just excepted it was a hamster. Never thought of why they called it that.

[@BionicRusty]

@@heithwatkins Got to be honest, I wasn’t 100% sure so did a search on the origins. 😂👍
