Not the most beautiful airgun in collection, but still sexy. It's built from spare parts dating from a 1995 nickel tube all the way back to a Benj. model 600 stock from 1930. This one is called the "Psychobilly F9".

Very nice! Is that stock original, or of your own design? It's from a slab sawn blank rather than quarter sawn, and it looks more modern than I would expect. It's also very attractive.

Wadcutter that's a Beautiful gun, in the same beautifully simple way, it's English equivalent would be the Airsporter Mk1...never bettered IMO.....except maybe this. The Imperial Express.

The stock was actually on a model 600 Automatic when I got it. The previous owner is a hard-core Benjamin collector and had replaced the original stock with this one, which he stated was NOS. Even though the original 600 stock had carving on it, I re-installed it in order to keep that BBgun as original as possible. I also have several NOS Benjamin stocks from the 1930s and the inletting and schnabel tip is spot on when compared. I do believe it has been refinished at some point making it look like new because my others are dull looking.

There’s definitely a lot of eye candy, posted on this thread. 
I’ve got a few Sheridans in my collection, but none have wood furniture, like this one. It’s also a “Lefty “.

In my mind, a decade or more of tradition and incredible reliability is what is beautiful, not engravings or fancy wood ......I pick the ageless quality of the Weihrauch HW100 for a PCP or the RWS Diana 48 for a springer......hands down!

Holy cow! What a gorgeous stock. I can't believe it came on a Sheridan. The figure looks better (to me) than 95% of the custom stocks I've seen on any rifle. Beautiful!There’s definitely a lot of eye candy, posted on this thread.

Back in the day, Diana, FWB, Walther, and Weihrauch all offered Tyro stocks on their match models. To my eye the lines and proportions of HW's are the best, especially the nice tapered fore end.
