    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.

    Cheers Danny. Wow !!! Seems our States-Side contingent have some very lovely condition -- and sensibly priced -- first class kit to go for ... Fill yer boots, chaps, and let us know which items you go for/get.

    That's the auto loader that Airarms used on some of their Jackal rifles as well.

    The Webley Eclipse is not very often seen here for sale, and that one looks very nice. The main cylinder is made from a quality alloy to cut down on the rifle's weight and it has "trapdoor" type loading for the pellet.

    I agree I love the look of this gun but it looks to maybe be overpriced already!

    Yes, the list price does seem top of the very top plus a bit, but how often does an unfired one come up States-Side ??? ... Come to think of it, how often does an unfired Stutzen come up for sale or auction this side of the pond, too ??? ... Go on buy it. You know you want to.

    BSF S70 for me, one of the guns I really want to own sometime.

    The Beeman marked FWB may also be very attractive over there, especially if it is an early one, to serious US collectors.

    Does anyone know if this is a silencer on this gun, it's marked Beeman which makes me think it just for looks? This looking kind of cool as well.
