Pro-Sport Stutzen?

[Sam Vimes]

A thread in collectors corner has just set me off on one!
I know it's not an entirely original idea but how many think that this might be a good idea for a limited production run of PS Stutzens? The PS lends itself perfectly to this configuration as its underlever doesn't latch in the way that most underlever rifles do. AA might even be able to make the undelever a little longer than standard and still be able to hide it in the longer Stutzen forend. This should make it slightly easier to cock that the standard PS which negates one of the few criticisms I've seen levelled at the standard PS. Anyone else think it's a good idea? Pretty please AA.

Ooh ... talkin' dirty and I like ... ... An Air Arms Pro Sport Stutzen ? Providing they left all that tacky curly Carlos Fandangos scroll etching off in favour of traditional style stock chequering as on my .177 walnut TX200HC (photo below for ref), and still included a rose wood tipped Schnabel end, I'd be in that long cue with you too.

Edit: Just added two photos of my BSA Rb-2 .177 Stutzen for reference along with the pic of my TX too .

Could the person that thinks it's a stupid idea please give an explanation? I'm genuinely interested, do you just not like stutzens?

[Jochen L.]

I think its an absolute great idea.

I also would like to see that open sights would be mountable and the under-lever would be made from steel.

The only problem for me would be that I would have to import it myself

There should be a plain "No, I don't like stutzens".

Cos I don't.

But others do, so it's not a stupid idea.

I like stetzens but NOT a Pro-Sport stutzen ,I think it would up set the balance and make the gun front heavy, so a bad idea, but if you ever get one can I have a go?

I'd love one always liked the look of stutzens
but
i cant afford one and as it doesnt look like a traditional rifle the wife would notice if i got one .

It couldn't just be an extended version of the same old PS stock then. Even if it was though there are ways and means round a balance problem. Anyone got a PS action lying around?

i like the PS looks but i don't like the underlever,i think a break barrel version would be better.

I like to see the cocking lever nicely hidden in the wood work.
It looks more rifle like and personally more pleasing to the eye.
So yes, a PS action in a Stutzen stock with traditional checkering (without the fancy laserwork scrolls) , with quality wood and trimmings,
would look nice and desirable to me.

Ask Antonio at GinB, he could easily do the mods to one of his stocks and then it only needs a longer cocking arm to be made.

A break-barrel Stutzen?

A break-barrel Stutzen?

It could have a sliding forend that would underhang the muzzle during cocking.
