Excellent read Tony... maybe ordering from the US is the only way to go? Crosmans do seem to get customised a lot and I would love to find a wood stocked 2200 that was affordable hence looking at the Benjamins.

I'd much prefer a Sheridan / Benjamin (early or late) to a 2200, Carl. Much more solid and with true classic presence. I think ordering from the US would be tricky? The Sheridan / Benjamin models offer in excess of 12ft.lbs muzzle energy and I wouldn't have thought that they'd entertain restricting one to sub-12. If you're patient, one might well turn up on here? One of the shops that I've bought from in the past, Lincoln City , often had Sheridans in. Maybe worth a try? And maybe be worth putting feelers out with people like Blackpool Air Rifles and Protek?
Er.......just a thought.....Mr Tinbum had one for sale a short while ago. Not sure if he still has it? Seem to remember that it wasn't silly money, either.
