Venom custom hw85

[paulliver]

That Venom 85 was my dream German break barrel. I saw it too and tried to buy it, but it wouldn't take the payment and flagged up as unavailable. Just have to be satisfied with my standard hw85k I suppose. Was lucky to find that in vgc.

Hi silva

Was going to get it re blued but decided not to as the blueung is in great condition
There where a few marks on the stock so thats been sent away to be re-done

It was one of my dream guns too so I sent one to Steve Pope and he did a v-mach version of the old venom cost be a bit but was well worth it

That sounds like a mighty fine rifle you will have there

You're lucky, I don't even have a standard 85

I have an 85 stock though so I feel like I have my foot on the first rung of the ladder!!

They also did a venom 85 with a 10 inch barrel then fitted with a silencer like on the 77 mamba. This was called the sidewinder. Mach 1.5

Blimey even I've got to admit that's a damn nice rifle but like I've said in the past, it takes the hands of British craftsmen to make it that way

I’m still surprised that a local didn’t snap that up.
I go in once or twice a week and I didn’t see it.
