    Unusual Hw77

    Any experts out there ever seen a Hw77 with an English shotgun style stock, with a straight chequered grip before? Ive just got one at a local auction and I've never seen one before. Quite liked the styling of it, although it appears to have a bit of surface rust (collecting it Monday). Just wondering if it was an option at some point, or if it's a one off custom job.

    Doesn't sound factory to me. Any chance of posting pictures from the auction listing?

    Beeman had a few done back in the 80's. Stock looks like a Beeman Webley C1. Not many made it to these shores so a good find. Mach 1.5

    I'm thinking it's a home modification, can be seen here:

    I'm sure it will need some work doing to it, yet another project I probably didn't need!

    very interesting one off - I'd take the scope off and refit the open sights.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    That looks very pointable.
    Good ratter with a red Dot on top or a 1.5-5x Whitetail.
