What do you think is the best looking factory break barrel is available

[where's it gone]

Webley Omega had the looks as did the BSA Mercury. The stock design does the trick.

I do like the look of a walnut longbow.

They do have something, mine doesn'y see the light of day much.

Gamo Statical airgun

"Appears on 1975.
Made with a power camera and a conventional break barrel.
Stock made from sheet steel and stamped on beech wood.
The camera and the barrel slide into rails."

Oh yeah...

The HW95 is nice to look at, but IMO disappointing to shoot.

The HW80 is long overdue for a new stock.

Of yesteryear - Feinwerkbau 124/127



Currently made - Weihrauch HW98.

Most of what's been mentioned above.

Two others:

- Diana 38 has a rather nice look to it.

- As les says earlier, the Webley Tomahawk, esp in walnut, has very pleasing lines. I think it looks better than the Longbow, even though the 'bow is a better gun at sub-12, and handles beautifully.

And my mental image of a classic springer is something like a Diana 35 or a BSF S70. Nothing special or dramatic about them, but they just look right.

Another vote for the Omega.

As people have said,unfortunately, too little too late for Webley at Birmingham .

Air Arms Pro Elite !
I'll have to get one now the SR box has been ticked.
Be tricky though !

This ^^^^ is seriously absolutely right IMHO.

Diana 38 for me also. Earlier model in walnut with shorter forend and slight hogsback comb.
Would settle for a current 34 Premium or one of the posher 340 N-tecs.
They do look sharper and sleeker than HW's to my eyes.

Hi,

HW98 every time. This is the best use of a 'bull barrel' configuration that I know of. The gun is a serious target/sporter but lighter than the 97k. There is a Youtube from Sandwell on the accuracy and it easily matches up to an underlever. Sod it - I'm going to buy one!

Calm down!

Please note: This thread is about which break-barrel looks the best.

The '98 is way too front heavy to actually shoot with.

probably the old asi commando mk3....looks like a simple traditional 410 shotgun....or possibly a bsf s60 with hand chequered grip
