A couple years ago I bought this rifle from a friend and used it for informal BR shooting and some Field target competition. I'm only selling it because I got a newer Thomas FT with a more compact stock that suits Open Class FT better and I can't keep both.
This is one of the early ones - #0026. Previously this was the competition rifle of Joe Peacock (originator of the original Speedy Pellet Inspector). Resealed and tuned last year by Mark Marini. Mark tuned this gun around 18.5FPE for 13.4 FX/JSB pellets and it shoots them very well with both barrels.
The barrel that's currently installed is a 36 twist LW poly. The other barrel I believe is the standard twist LW 6-groove. Both barrels are .177 caliber and have Martin Rutterfords threaded adapters pressed on and a DonnyFL Tatsu moderator. I found it has no impact on accuracy but you can test for yourself.
The BR stock is completely original save for the rear 'butt' piece that was replaced with a longer delrin version to suit a the length of a PQP one-piece rest. I will continue looking for the original aluminum piece and if the buyer wants, will supply it once located. The action clamp system has been repaired on both jacking taps using Helicoils, which makes them even stronger than original. (You don't really need much 'un-clamping' force, in fact I was able to change barrels using only one jacking tap prior to the helicoil repair). The Thomas BR stocks are ambidextrous.
The GRS stock is LEFT HANDED and was purchased new in 2024 from EuroOptic as a flat-top and inletted for the Thomas by a local gunsmith who specializes in stock work. It is pillar and epoxy bedded around the action screw with the air cylinder and trigger housing both floating. It is also fitted with a UIT rail under the front. The butt plate assembly is a MEC Contact III. The stocksmith also made a mix of wax-oil since the GRS stock treatment is not available in the US and I will provide some for you. I recently chopped excess length off the fore-end and had not gotten around to polishing that cut. If you want it cleaned up I see no reason it won't clean up with proper filing/sanding/waxing. As stocks go this is quite ideal for HFT or shooting off a bipod.
Price for the whole package is $2800 shipped. $2500 without the GRS stock since there aren't many left-handers out there. I accept USPS Money order. If you want to arrange something local to Hershey PA I'm certainly open to that.
