Another Theoben Valuation

[ken69]

Gents,
Following on from a recent valuation request for a Theoben SLR98 I would appreciate your thoughts on the value of an excellent condition .22 Fenman. Ambidextrous stock, Theoben moderator with Vortex tip. I would say it is as close to mint as you could expect to find
A big thanks to the members who passed comment on the SLR. It sold immediately for the top end of the valuation and to be honest I could have sold it at least six times over, such was the interest

I was on the theoben gas ram group on Facebook. they seemed to sell pretty quick on there.

get your valuation off here though. they might give a low valuation on there just to get the sale .

I would say £350.00-£400.00

[The Squire]

if it is truly a minter, has the original fixed mounts, and the Hyeuda stock I'd say £375 to £400.

[Geezer]

Assuming it's a standard stock, not a Hydeua/Profile, and that your definition of excellent is the same as mine, then something in the region of £275-350.

Would this gun still hold it's own against new guns of a similar price? I'm thinking about getting one.
How do they compare with the Impact RM100.

Much better build quality than new rifles. They are forgiving to shoot as the lock-time is ultra quick and very pointable.
Maybe the best self-contained sub 12 ft llb hunting rifle?

£350

Gents,
How do I confirm the type of wood on the stock. It doesn't look like walnut but looks every bit as good if not better. It is certainly better quality than beech. What are the characteristics of Hyedua

I'd say it's the default wood for most Theobens.

whip the recoil pad off and you may see bare wood under it. These are my evolution and hw99s stocks with the recoil pad off. The hw99s is the one with reddish dye on it.

Both beech stocks

To be honest buying an air rifle fitted with a Hyeuda stock is akin to buying an ash tray made from ivory(immoral)
Hyeuda is now a protected wood stock as the North African forests it came from have now been decimated.

Any idea how I can identify if I have an immoral stock on my rifle. Is the grain different to other woods. Is it similar to walnut or beech?
