Lovely.
And I have a special treat tomorrow.....picking up my Lazaglided '80 bullpup and '77 Vantage from Mr Pope!
I'd forgotten about the Venom Snipe. I wonder if Tony Wall had forgotten this also when he launched the '99 based .25 Snipe?
Put me down for a HW80 Vantage for £265.

“An airgun or two”………
I spent hours drooling over those adverts as a young un
Grumpy goes back in time and invests in a number of Venom rifles to make his fortune !!!
If that had happened id still be skint but happily spending my evenings staring lovingly at a large glass case full of aforementioned Venom rifles
Someone mentioned venom's!!!! The story goes that venom didn't make the TX200 Ranger for long as AA copied it for the HC so they thought why bother!!..Also that's why AA haven't brought out a new springer cause without venom arms they have nothing to copy!!!...moan over. Mach 1.5
Gosh, I'd forgotten they did Webley Vulcans. Anyone ever seen a TDR in the flesh?
Truth is, most of the design Venom and later AA implemented was inspired by a shy, quiet, talented precision engineer who loved competing back in the day at FT with his own make rifles either spring piston or multi pump pneumatic.
I also remember him being a bloody good shot too.
