    To be fair if you have a nice tidy venom rifle with a faded sticker a new one would be nice

    Yeah, but, what about when these are freely fitted to non-Venom guns which are then passed on as the genuine article at a premium price?

    Well out of order.

    They only sure way that you are buying a Venom is have a look on the inside. If I was a seller I would be prepared to strip the rifle in front of any prospective purchaser. Harsh but IMO the only way.

    Is the correct answer!

    Doesn't work for all tuners as grease can easily be squirted through the cocking slot.

    Looks like one of the stickers is faded, very sly indeed.

    Unless the name is copyrighted, what can you do?

    Plenty other brands have had their logo's copied and sold on eblag.

    Buyer beware is the only advice if buying a rifle that's supposedly what the seller claims it is.

    Search on eblag for rifle stickers . Air arms ones .smk ones plus plenty more.

    I'd love to add the Venom double cobra logo sticker to my Tomahawk to match my HW97. Its going to be vglided at some point hopefully, but i much prefer the old logo to the new one.
