Theoben Fenman mate. Lovely gun. They do not make them anymore, though you can still get them in places.

i thought it looked like an eliminator ! .

It could be, I've only seen a pic of an eliminator.

The stock does look dark for an evo walnut (which is that exact shape) and the beech version of the evo does not have the snabled forestock.
 
My old Comp FT and HFT rifle Anshutz 2002 conversion by Dave Welham
fitted with short Alu jnr cylinder and cut back to take a Silencer this was the quietest air rifle ive ever used or seen since .
fitted with a Tasco 10-50 x 56 scope with large side wheel for rangefinding
sadly long gone replaced by a AA S200

Yeesh..I have some pretty rifles...but my air rifle is a beater :D. Webley Xocet XS carbine - all scratches and dings on the woodwork from resting on fences and the like. Still does the job on rats etc. though!
I had one of these,smashing little rifles and as accurate as you like,superb hunting rifles.

What a lot of nice looking air rifles. Almost makes me want to go out and buy one.
Really very nice indeed, thanks for sharing.

I've only got the one but I'd rather not show it.

I've got a trusty Weihrauch HW80K but I'm also getting a Webley Raider PCP singleshot off a mate at the end of the month.

I was just about to say how proud I was to own a customised BSA Mercury and a fully orig cadet, both in .177 that I have had for years but I have just realised that although very pretty they dont seem to up to the same calibre as the above> some really nice kit. I better pursuade the better half i need to spend more money.

I am also in the market for a 22 lightning xl. It looks great for the money and seems to get mostly good reviews. Which stock did you get the black or wood? Exactly which pellets did you use for it, as I have read that they are a bit picky.

Edit; Just seen the photo of the rifle, thats the one I am after. Good kill.

at the moment i only have 3 old guns (ones that work anyway). an old Diana model, a bsa meteor, and a near mint condition bsa airsporter (with the laser etching still on the top which is apparently pretty rare and means its worth something apparently).
pic: the diana and airsporter (as well as some of my stuff i was photographing)


i have been saving up and im going to buy a Air Arms S400 Classic
