No one else will have a clue without a picture.![]()
Had this rifle over 20 years ago it was a big old lump really dark stock and the distinct feature was the pistol grip was like bark and if I remember it had the same finish on the forend.
Believe it was a factory rifle so not a home made stock, but don't have a clue to what the rifle was?

Sounds a lot like my rifle which has a metal barrel with a hole in it and a trigger to release the pellet. I think it was made by someone at a factory who was alive at the time. The stock was made from a tree, but the bark and leaves were scrapped off.
It,s not so big, so may not be the same as yours.

Sorry no pics but thought the stock design might have been a clue to someone .
Lol ... early morning grins .
To the OP , what type was it ?
Springer ? and if so was it a break barrel , underlever , sidelever .
Pcp ?
How did you fill it - to narrow down the possibilities - did the bottle remove from the front , or did you have to fill by hose to the gun .
Single shot or multi via a mag - built in or removeable ?
Cocking by a side Bolt or handle or lever ?
or Co2 / Pump-up ?
As for a grip like BARK
Sounds like the airgun had heavily stippling - not the same as chequering and would look and feel like raw bark to some areas of the stock . As usually seen on Walnut stocks and if stippled to grip and forend that would suggest a premium model .
So if a break barrel - and it had a rise and fall cheek piece , it could have been a HW98 as specifically this had course stippling to grip and from an image I have also ( it seems ) to the underside of the forend .
If Pcp it could be from this period a Webley FX 2000 , or one of the higher Falcons possibly .
Or ....
I have run out of ideas .
