    no buddy definitely not. Had way too much figuring and grain in it for that. Besides the wood was wrongly grained for it to be beech. If it had of been a 98 it would be in my collection by now

    Had another look today and hw35, all for the princely sum of £267. Not a bad price that, as guess half that would be for the stock alone. Will have to wait and see if i get my new job to see if i can afford it out of the first months pay. What's the hw35 like to shoot and tinker/get tuned?
