Mach 1 was only HW GUNS. Custom made. Good but ,only a splendid few were made and they have been bested with todays adjustments and such.. The whole Air Arms unit was a direct production copy of it , same sear design and set up but possibly different angles. That being said I can make a CD trigger do ounces and what more is there.

For Hw guns , rear plug had to be opened up to 14.2 mm for the cassett to fit in.
For the RECORD , Steve Pope made a Mach 3 or a newer trigger that was so advanced that it was far ahead of anything made. I was gonna use them in my personal prototype guns I was planning on going to market with but ,both Uk and USA COLLAPSED IN 2009 2010. And we shelved the idea .. I have plans and pics but out of proprietary respect I have never released them and won’t ..

The Mach 1 trigger was a Ken turner/ venom designed bespoke unit fitted to some venom hw builds replacing the factory rekord trigger.and it’s excellent to . The cd unit in the airarms rifles is similar. Regards this rifle I’m not sure what Ivan , Dave or Steve did but it’s truly excellent

Interesting. I was thinking that Mach I trigger was a VMach or Venom deal.

It was venom
It was , Venom who released it. Through Ivan and his co ideas , Ken Turner was the Machinest that did the work. And helped design . His input in the industry is legendary.
The “ T” in Tx 200 stands for Turner as it WAS HIS DESIGN WAY before anyone did it.. He helped devolve the Mach 1 and 2 rifles. His creativity went silent as he was a humble man with talent beyond.

Absolute air rifle royalty!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. I am passionate about these models, and yours represents the very best of the very best!
I am lucky to have the only Venom SR I have seen in the US. FABULOUS guns. This one is in amazing condition. It was sold as a new gun directly from Venom. Completely Venom blued down to the sling hardware and stock screws!

Very nice Lewis 👌
Not sure how many like mine were made as it’s an advertisement gun . I do believe it has the aluminium piston , and would think don engraved it to . So I’d say it’s a rare rifle indeed
