    Hi Darren,

    Sorry, I'm hopeless at posting pictures and doing links and things.

    But if you Google up "Kestock Predator" you'll find some.

    yes please , I love the hw80 , but the stock is so boring and at the same time so simple and vintage looking . either love them or hate them , a bit like marmite ...

    so any pics of re-vamped standard stocks welcomed

    Thank you

    There appears to be about a 10mm or so difference in where the front stock screws are on the 80 to the one's on the 77/97.

    No worries.

    And if you can ever make it to a Boinger Bash (quite local for you), you'll be more than welcome to have a go with it and also be able to see and play with a few more very nice 80s and other springers that the Good People of Quigley Hollow bring along.
