Theoben Theoben Rapid Rifle Pics

[WillM]

Theoben Rapid 12/250 .25 cal. My second airgun ever, purchased new in 2003, right off the boat from England.
I spoke to AZ a couple of times about upgrades but never got around to it. Still a tack driver.

100% custom from scratch Theoben Rapid clones by Chip Smit circa 2008-2011. One from a solid block of titanium, because he could... The triggers are completely custom built and unlike anything you've ever felt before. Every part, from the barrel clamps to the valves and plugs and hammers were made by Chip to the highest standard possible.

Here is my .22 MFR. Custom 21" barrel by Martin from RAW, shortened AZ shroud and carbon tube over barrel. Shoots lights out and very quiet. Need to take better pics outside.
I've owned three Rapids over the years. The grey one that Joe Brancato has in some pics was mine at one time. Shoukd have kept that one. Plus another one I had AZ made into a carbine for me.

I've always loved the tactical look, and I bought the specific TTR-1 directly when it launched in FAC version. The rest is customized but all in the tactical theme, with a Tactical Vanquish and Tactical Chassis.

Especially love the quality and side bolt cocking and would love to see other brands develop a nice smooth bolt like caking system.

Hey TC!

Nice guns. Do your guns still shoot and hold air? Any idea what O-ring kit might be needed to service them?

My Dawson/Smith receiver and trigger were built up by Ernie Olsen.

I also have an AZ built Rapid.

They all look great, but I prefer the traditional style over the chassis. Beautiful pieces.
