Verom Stickers aren't worth the paper they are printed on.
Loads of rifles went out of the shop without them.
Loads got taken off straight away, as who wants a sticker on such lovely bluing?
Loads got washed off in the rain, or just knocked off with an oily rag.


Venom Rifles are generally a factory rifle customised; usually a tune of some kind. Some reblued and some given after market stocks. Some have been reconditioned again having lost some of their lustre. Their worth is in the work done and general shooting feel. The work could be copied and some modern tunes are every bit if not better. The only provenance is the paperwork or just a good history of ownership. Between a new copy and an original to a factory is only a few £100 between all three. Value is in each rifle as a rifle: how it shoots; what it looks like; if you like it.

Nice someone has bothered having some more stickers reproduced. But anyone buying a car would look under the bonnet, not just look at the badge on the back. The very first Venoms had not much more than a good polish.
PS, please send me three stickers. One for my Venom that has no sticker, one for my guncabinet that has touched a Venom, and one for a BSA Buccaneer that I'm going to pass off as the only Venom Buccaneer ever made because it has a sticker on to prove it

The great majority of Venom tuned rifles were simply out of the box jobs given a quick polish, good quality spring fitted coated in a black "tar" and had the piston seal roughened up with sandpaper on the lathe. That was unless much money was spent and you were prepared to wait
