    looking for a Stutzen stocked air rifle

    Is there a good quality stutzen stocked air rifle available now that Diana seemed to have stopped making them in Europe ?
    Or will I have to continue searching for a good used example here .
    a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .

    Problem with Stutzens is that unless they are Mannlicher stutzens in .256 Roberts

    http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/foru...1296900648.jpg


    .... they are all a crap.


    Best thing is to get yourself a nice HW77 and have a Stutzen stock made for it.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
