    Thanks for the welcome
    I love the 95, shot it at my local range a few times, really good rifle, the stamping would just grind me down, if it wasn’t for the stamping would have snapped one up instantly

    In that case, buy an HW95 and a rectangular sticker to go over the 'Achtung' stamps.

    A Union Jack sticker? Or a Venom one? Welsh Dragon?

    Burmingham Webley are great, had Stingrays also couple trackers in the past and last 8 years a Brumbow. Well worth the concideration.
    John Darling JD (1946-2004) was my inspiration to be the best i can and enjoy the sport i love. R.I.P

    Older HW 85, 95, 80

    Diana 34 Compact

    Comets Fenix 400 plus lots of custom work for 400 quid !!

    Webley Longbow which would probably be well tuned for 400 quid and a good buy if off one of the known ‘non bodgers’
    Looking for TO-6 Trigger unit unmessed with or T0-6 kit for 34

    I was looking at the longbows, they look great, haven’t shot one before tho, can only find ones that are a bit beaten up tho, best one I found was for £250 and had a couple of dings in the wood

    As long as barrel not bent , they are solid
    Some spares may be more tricky being long discontinued -

    All of the rifles listed shoot as accurately as one another, Cometa too

    I have less faith in some new 22 hw barrels than ones from over 5 years ago but not a prob with a break barrel as easy to change anyway -

    I’d pick up an old unbollocked about with 95 or 80 myself -
