[HW80S410]

Prosport in .20 with hexagonal Lothar walther barrel with a celtic knot/rope pattern inlaid in the metal in platinum, tuned to handle as smoothly as my bonnie and Clyde HW97 dose in .22(a pellet on top of the scope turret stays there when you fire, I have shot pcps which felt livelier).
Sat in a made to measure custom sporter stock of top end tiger stripe walnut with some personal engravings including the phases of the moon on.
Topped of with a nice peice of swarovski glass.

My mid-80's Venom 77 which like an utter **** I sold in early 90's for peanuts when I thought I'd lost interest in airguns...

[FWB124]

Not an airgun, but would love to have a Gewehr 98 of the same 1916 vintage as my Lee-Enfield Mk III
The Australian Army were clearing out their armory of old superseded weapons and decided to offer their stockpile of 303 Lee-Enfield's to any soldier who had completed 20+ years of full time service. My father gratefully accepted their offer. He had a choice of either a brand new and still in the protective paper model from 1940-50's or this old one with a little more character from 1916. He chose the latter.

I did have the opportunity to buy a gold plated HW35 one of those presented to the Bontofts of Hull Cartridge fame. I refused it. The quality of the plating was poor and varied a lot in colour. One gold plated HW77, which was a prize in AGW, was part ex for something more suitable for hunting at Target Sports in Bolton. The plating quality wasn't much better.
