Visited the shop today. The young lady that served me was very knowledgeable, very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I have used them before and will in the future.

Recently wanted to buy my boys a New air rifle, specifically a BSA Scorpion Cadet, this is a weapon that my son uses at his ATC Squadron. I looked all over the country, I really wanted to buy local, and was given helpful advice buy a number of other shops around Yorkshire, but have to say, Reading the reviews on Penningtons, and subsequently talking, then meeting Tracy in person she was very helpful, and even though she did not have a gun in store, she made calls to the BSA factory, these are a rifle that is made to order apparently, and delivered after Christmas, this wasn't an issue. All in all the service I received as a customer, has ensured that I will be returning to Penningtons for further purchases. Thankyou Tracy for your good customer service.
