Get in touch with Richard Spencer at Target Technics 01254 237913. He designed and produced them. I am informed, though cannot confirm, that the one that was at McAvoys was "suspect" in RS`s opinion.

i have put a few shot through 1 of these in the 80's and what a gun.

a collectors piece by any definition but as said before,it depends on whose buying it.

[LeeEv2]

I have one too! but mines been converted to .177.
1 of 2 i believe? the first being Richard Spencers! Did hear of one going for over 1500 love to know what mines worth? good luck with the sale mate!

[Mark D]

Just to correct something here guy's - these rifles did not come with a seperate silencer! They are quiet to shoot and very accurate, as long as you have the strength and technique to cock them!

[mark42]

IIRC Richard Spencers first public unveiling of the Genesis was at our Chorley outdoor range in the late 80's (?). I could never get my hear round the offset o/p mount system. Airgunner magazine featured some photos.


Im beginning to wonder now how many new rifles have been unveiled at R.R. during its history.

I have a Genesis that was given to me by my father. It has offset mounts and an airlogic scope.

It is pretty heavy and cocking it is an absolute pain in the arris, but I wouldnt part with it!

[jonballs]

i`ve just been offered one no 130 boxed with scope/mounts and all paperwork ect , but don`t know what to offer him for it , or is any one after one as i`ll never shoot it as i`ve got too many now that sit in the safe
