    Agree with above especially as I now own an NJR100. Cracking gun that exudes quality, as do a few other 100 series guns but the NJR is the ultimate.

    Also agree the Sportsmatch GC2 is already sought after and still used, and the Mick dawes specials have to be up there as well.

    Not sure if I would go looking for a BSA Firebird though. One PCP I should have kept is a Titan MPT that I bought for the daughter, and was lovely little piece of basic engineering quality. The Gamekeepers seem to bring crazy money for a basic crude take down and they look dated now.
    I can also see a future classic PCP being any unmodified Pro Target or Daystate PH6.

    I assume we're talking modern production pcps form the 1980s onwards, so heres some names for consideration...

    Early Daystate Huntsman Low (some may disagree, but it was the first of the modern pcps...great gun, I had one)
    Skan
    Black Fox
    Gamekeeper
    GC2

    Rarest possibly being the Black Fox??? (...it is also the worst by a country mile, and not because of its looks)..having said that, I don't know how many GC2s were made?...20-30 maybe?

    Of the modern crop definitely the MK2 Phoenix...because it's another quality British gun, and I have one

    Have to agree with most of them, but dissagre re the Firebird, it is a greart gun, way ahead of its time and in .20 its damn accurate. Have seen abull pup GC2 and had a few shoots but dont think its owner would ever part with her.

    Get your hands on a Phoenix Mk2. Not only are they unique they are the most accurate rifle I own
    AA TX200, HFT 500, AS400 .22
    Daystate Grand Prix & Mk3
    Parker-Hale/PAX Phoenix Mk2: .22 & .177

    I think it is more like 2-300 in total.
    People who have been there focus on the fundamentals. People who sit at keyboards all day focus on the trivial and inane.
