    HW77 / K Customs.

    Having picked up a 77 off here which I think is an Airmasters 77? It got me wondering how many custom houses did custom 77's. So here goes.
    Northern Arms - sierra gold, silver and hunter.
    Airmasters - FTS, FT, Dominator, Stalker.
    Venom - Varmintor, Vantage, Hunter, Mamba.
    Streatham Armoury - Avenger
    Airgun Centre - Zephyr 77
    Gunsport - 77 Varminter but they had tyrolean stocks.
    B&B - 77 Bullpup
    WBPS - 77 custom.

    Hope I covered most. Sorry for any missed. The 77 maybe the greatest airrifle made? Mach 1.5

    Custom 77's

    Sorry my list is based on the golden age of tuning...mid 80's early 90's. Cindy stocked venom's so she had no need to do a 77. Mach 1.5

    I have a Zephyr 77, hence the Username. Most who have shot it liked it. But not as easy to get high scores with compared to my FTP900.

    Who did the marauder ? Actually I think that was WBPS....
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I could be wrong, but I don't think that Steve ever did a '77 based special, favouring the HW80 and some of the conversions he did for the Sharp pump-ups.


    And yes to the 335 Marauder. Really wanted one back then. Would love one now.

    Morning Paul.
    I think you covered the usual suspects there.
    I think but am not sure if a gunshop not far from me had a stab at jumping on the bandwagon in the form of Litts of Newport?
    I may be wrong and only way I could be sure is to trawl through the mags of that era. Something I enjoy doing from time to time
