    Tx200hc .22 in walnut with venom vmac tuning & a Nikko Mountmaster 3-9-50.

    Got bored of pcps, went back to basics & I don't think I'll ever 'need' to purchase another rifle
    Cheers

    A couple of years ago, I would have said (my first gun) my HW77k as its a terrific rifle and has sentimental value but.... Having recently bought a MK3 TX200HC in fully manufactured lefty style, it would have to be that for both looks and accuracy

    Something like a 3/4 scale Mk1 HW80 or HW77K, in .177 and in a Ginb #7 stock.
    So easily pleased

    That's so tough! When I buy my guns, I buy them as they are different from the rest so they all have their good points.

    It would have to be my new Brocock Compatto with Hawke 4-16x50 scope and A-tec mod. It's so comfy to aim, super quiet and looks stealthy!

    My Diana 52. Sentimental reasons; it was my mates favourite springer and ultimately became my first gun.

    Very nice, well played.

    After reading the rules in the OP properly - I'll have to go with my Ripley AR4 Silhouette.

    Hard Question

    A hard question as I collect air rifles normal run of the mil and special additions all used regularly.

    I have three stuning ones which are a Daystate Red Ranger, Daystate Saxon one hell of a weapons system and a run of the mill R10. Out of these three I'd go for the R10 why you ask hard to say main reasons are it is dammed accurate never ever goes tits up and has the most amazing stock I'd say that the stock would give the extreamly expensive top rate shot gun stocks a run for their money. How BSA ever let the stock get into the general population I will never know.

    I'll stick some picture up when I get back from holiday in Hostpital lol.

    I bet my answer will be the same as Lens.....my Walther lp53 Kurst version.....esp after the hair raising work that went into doing it......and quite probably the best looking pistol of all time.
    I offered to buy Lens when i saw it....he wouldnt sell so i did my own..
