[QUOTE=C.V;7241859]Why the smile splosh?

are repaired stocks liable to break again, even with a top class repair job?

Would it always be a weak spot?[/QUOTEI have a repaired venom stock and Steve @ v mach said it wont break again so that's the smile

Hi Guys

Just wanted to confirm that I brought this rifle from Keith, which I picked up on Monday and it really is a cracker. The stock has certainly been professionally repaired to a very high standard, as you cannot tell that it is actually fractured across the pistol grip, even when you look at it closely.

I have quite a bit of experience with gun stock refurbishment, and given a few coats of oil, this stock will be pretty much perfect.

The only point that I cannot decide is wether I should get the action re-blued as it does have some light rust spots starting. I will 0000 wire wool these later and see how it goes as, I don't really want to loose the Lazaglide sticker, even though it is faded.

All in all a great Original HW80 Venom Lazahunter rifle that I am really pleased with, as they are hard to get now a days.

All the very best

David

Hi Daz

Thank you.

It really is a small world, as up until the age of 23 I actually lived opposite the Venomac Larger shop at the top of Mucklows Hill in Halesowen.I used to go into the Venomac shop and buy shooting items, but I never actually ordered a custom rifle from them at the time.

I have brought a few Venom Rifles since and have obviously had to pay a higher price for them and Im totally hooked on them now.

They are an affliction....!!

Kind Regards

David

I remember the old shop on the gun barrels trading estate, I bought an 80 hunter lazaglide from them and a stage 1 tuned 77, the 80 was my favourite tho, absolutely fantastic gun, wish I still had it, it was £360 and came with a silencer and walnut stock, I've got one on order from V-Mach, it's probably going to be a year before I get it lol, I only waited 2 weeks for the venom, let's hope it's worth it, atb Daz

Hi Paul

Thank you mate.

I've always wanted a Venom Lazahunter rifle as it's my favourite stock that Ivan and Dave made.

Now I just need a Lazahunter HW77 or HW97 now to go with it, here's hoping.

Like I say these rifles are an affliction. I really enjoy restoring them back to pritine condition, if needed and then shooting them on a Sunday morning, at the club I shoot at. I've hardly shot a centre fire rifle for some months now as I can't seem to put my Spring powered air rifles down.

You're more than welcome to have a look when it's finished mate.

Kind Regards

David

Your more than welcome to view a few of mine. Agree the Lazahunter is a lovely stock design. Regards Mach 1.5
