So, guessing a synthetic stock?

No mention of it!

What's going off here, then?

Its just over halfway to being a baaadass hunting rifle out of the box! Just need a new boingy! I think the stock is painted wood..... Which is better as you could get a raised cheek piece mod done for ultra bad ass!! Plonk a dimondback 2-7 on top & you have an awsome rifle a?
So is it a 99s?

I've looked at this several times over the months. It is a 99 Rhys, even down to the Rekord trigger. Painted wood sounds naff, but might be nicer than the plastic. It'd go nicely with my 97 Silverline.....

Ok lads,got one of these myself you know.It has a painted wood stock of the model before checkering.Mine is FAC or it would be if still in Germany its doing a massive 7 ft/lb in .177.Still only had a hand full of shots through it so far.

Yep, as Nick says, with the Rekord trigger on board, it's a 99S alright.

I hadn't picked up on that thing on the end of the barrel on pm reply, but with that as standard, a quick de-burr, re-lube, top hat and (optional) spring guide, and this should be a lovely lightweight, compact and discreet little rifle.

Can't help feeling that it may be even better with a couple of inches or so less barrel, though!

In fact, no, just had another little look...it'll do nicely as is, thank you.

It'll be quiet alright matey!
The HW silencer works well. With a little fettling on the internals, as per above and many 99 fettling threads, I think it'd be pretty much awesome.
