    Venom "Varminter" does it for me on a carbine 80 or 77K. The thumbhole is actually not the most functional stock, and makes disengaging the safety fiddly and slow, but there's just something about the looks.

    Also, Venom BSF Bavaria.

    Then, anything custom FWB124/127. Maybe a 1970s Air Rifle Headquarters ARH-120X, just to be different.

    Always tended myself to hunters, rather than the full-on FT style of the Airmasters guns.

    All of the above mentioned are lovely.

    And those pictured are truly scrumptious.

    I'd love a Mach 1 or 2 one day, although I doubt it'll ever happen.

    And an '80 Varminter.

    Having owned and sold most of the desirables above, I have to say the nicest to shoot was my Airmasters 77 which was re-worked extensively by Ken Turner in 2006-it was virtually recoilless once "The Master" had worked his magic
