Not a lot of point in jobbing backwards but on pure financial grounds I do regret selling my 3 Whiscombes. A JW65, a JW70 with .177 & .22 barrels and a JW80 FAC .22. In fairness I hated the JW80 but the other 2 were lovely guns.
As I've said my regrets are only financial-the most I got for any of them was £1200. In terms of 'shootabliity' none of them were particularly outstanding. My currently owned Park 93 shoots every bit as well as any of them AND it only needs a single cock. Why a JW should today be 8 to10 times as valuable totally eludes me. On the triple grounds of performance, quality of build and rarity the Park is every bit as good. The JW80 I actively disliked especially having to cock the rifle 3 times to get 27 ft lb was a real pain. The Theoben Eliminator is a better gun in every way.
On a more reasonable level I do regret selling a very nice Venom lazaglided Webley Longbow in .177 with a very neat walnut ambi stock and also a SFS Banshe in .177 (HW95 stage 3 tuned by SFS) although the Banshee went to a good friend who still uses and loves it many years later.

I agree on the park. I have a. 22 cal thumbhole stocked on and i love shooting it. Weight wise the whizzers were heavy guns also. My mate had the jb80 and that was a pig to cock. As you say why they are around 5k i dont know. And now we have lost john who can work on them to his standard now
Blimey, it wasn't until I started looking at everyones' woes I realized how my airguns I have had!
No where near what some people have had I know but...
1> some Italian made break-barrel pistol
2> BSA MK2 Meteor ( still have it but it's a bag of shit... possibly the worst rifle I have ever shot)
3> BSA Super Meteor
3> Relum Tornado ( still have it )
4> G50 Pistol (ewwww)
5> Sharps Ace
6> HW 77K (Mk1) ( still have it )

10> Daystate PH6
11> Daystate MK3
12> Beeman P17 ( still have it )
13> HW 75 pistol ( still have it )
14> Airarms S200 with a prototype click-mag (sorry I let that go too)
15> S&W 586 CO2 Power-Port (never seen another one anywhere--- I think it was a factory tuned version?????? Though I may be wrong)
16> HW100 FSB K Sporter ( still have it )
17> HW77 Tyrolean
18>HW97K - Dipped ( still have it )
Plus a few Airsofters too... I think that's 'em all.

In order of regret!
Airsporter S carbine .177 with great walnut stock.
Airsporter RB2 Stutzen. 22
Theoben Evo Walnut .22.
Plinkerer and Tinkerer
1st BSA Challenger Carbine in .22" and still boxed - my first air rifle sold to a local dealer when I discovered beer and cigarettes. Numpty!
2nd AA TX200HC; left handed action and beech stock in .177". I should have given it more of a chance but found the loading process a pain.
3rd= (the ones that got away) when I got back into shooting air rifles in the early noughties I was offered at good prices these two air rifles but was happy with my HW100. The first was an HW98, the second a left handed AA MPR when the stocks were still walnut.
Rich.
