    I would very much like to see that 'Sterling Mk.2 Service' in the flesh, or alternatively some close up photographs.

    "TR A powerful lightweight take down survivalist gun which and be supplied to fire a barbed bolt, tranquiliser dart or slug in calibres from .25 to .40. FAC or Export only Estimated RRP £500"

    I was really impressed with them - then I realised it was just some giveaway pens

    One was shown on the Vintage American Airgun forum about five years ago, John.

    The gun was a near perfect copy of the MK2 service except it had a plastic stock.

    I'll do a search later to see if I can find the thread.

    Edit - found it :-

    And an advert :-

    Agreed, it spoils the whole line of the rifle.

    Thanks for that clearer picture, Steve. The screen shot from the video shows the rifle but little detail.
    It's a pity they didn't stick to open sights, as there's plenty of room at the rear of the breech block to mount a decent rear sight, as per the original.

    Looks like it railed for a scope? Wouldn’t that look strange?

    Yes, can't see any opens on it at all - let's hope that's because this is a prototype/show gun and not the finished product!

    An interesting concept but it has a lot to live up to as the original is legendary.

    It's a prototype so I hope the rear sight is still under discussion. It is by far the most exciting new air rifle I've seen in years. I will buy one if and when they make them.

    I just hope they get rid of that really annoying round headed screw behind the trigger
