    Bit of a crazy price but I have never seen one

    A Tyro on a R!, sure seems to add value.

    Nice stock but just an HW80. Admittedly, different branding.

    Indeed, factory tyro from the late 80s or so. I have one on a 77. They are rare.

    Price does seem insane. Over here, I guess £450 ($500?) on a good day.

    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.

    That one looks like my Hw80 Factory tyro,but my one as a steel silencer fitted.
    They do feel great for unsupported shooting.

    I wonder how inundated that selling site would be if they let us in the UK sell air rifles on it ?

    Crazy prices would be run of the mill

    That would be interesting for sure, early english air rifles are just not that easy to get over here. But that price is just nuts. It can happen in an auction.

    Good evening gents, i have just had a look and checked one of my HW80 rifles and it has exactly the same looking stock as the one in the pic.
    Just curious as to how rare these stocks are?
    If anyone has any input please shout up.
    Thank you Maz.

    Probably what is rare is that its a Beeman R1? Doubt he imported that many but I really have no idea. I certainly haven’t seen one over here in my 7 years of collecting.

    I have the 80KT and 77KT factory Tyroleans.

    Beeman listed these in the mid 1980's for one edition only of his airgun guides as special order.

    If anybody can host them I have a couple of pics ( never got the hang on posting pics on this BBS despite joining in 2000 !!)
