No spring noise because the factory "Spring Tamer" guide fits snugly. The one in my Stingray broke so I made one out of Delrin. Kept the original spring and seal. Works fine. Both my Tomahawks still have the Spring Tamers.

Which springer do you wish would be manufactured again?

Beeman R10 deluxe. Sold mine, wish I hadn’t, but it helped to fund my most favorite pcp, a wildcat mk2 in 25 cal 600mm barrel. Also sold my FWB 124, but I believe those are still being made?

Darchule and KWK unfortunately before my time. Sounds like a sweetheart. I’ll watch for them. I’m trying to come to grips with what I have seen in last 3 yrs. Crow

Again before my time. Have the 85’s, and they are satisfying, but Beeman always seemed to dress his up a little, maybe change the stock. I’ve read nothing but good about Beeman.
Maybe you might cross paths with them again. Crow

The Webley UK line of springers was excellent. Too bad the UK factory closed. I would like to see the Webley Tracker sidelever carbine made again.

That is terrific regarding your DIY tamer, jealous you have 2 Tomahawks.
I also have 2 BSA UK Supersports .177 these little rifles are powerful and easy to shoot Bullseyes at 20 yards one is scoped, the other not. The non scoped one is for pure plinking at cans all day.

I have a Beeman R10 in .20 cal I bought from Dave SLADE Airgunwerks about 12 years ago. I dressed it up with a CS Custom stock put a HW98 Barrel sleeve on it and it is a purdy.

I also have 2 UK Supersports. They don't twang and vibrate either do they?
Later BSA Airsporters including the Stutzens don't have noisy springs........ Do you hear that Weihrauch?

I would really love to have a TX200SR MK1, but with a slide set up like the FWB 300. I really love my SR, but the slide action from the 300 is amazing.

Very nice. I’m looking forward to buying a few custom stocks in the future. Love that barrel. Thanks for sharing. Crow

The FWB124D. But with a walnut stock like my HW35E. Bought my FWB in 1979, still own it, and it still is magic. Serial number 18866, rifle from ARH, Robert Law.

I acquired a .22 Pro-Elite some time ago and its really superb. I don't know whether mine has a tapered tube or not and I don't really care cause it shoots excellently. If they could bring that one back without the issues that'd be my vote.
All the UK springers - Webley's, BSA's, the AA pro elite/SR - were pretty great.
