    Which rifle has she got? I've made heaps of custom suppressors for co2 and pcp rifles, I've had power tuned Crosman 2250s sounding like a dead sparrows final fart as it falls to the ground.

    Industry QB79 Accurate like I would never have believed....a cheap arse 6x32 scope and a tendency to hit a 10c piece at 25 m (best group was about the same size at 50m but drop was a bastard....) I get about 600fps going by trajectory...brilliant for plinking but I need to source a new seal for where the bottle screws in ...so a visit to paint ball supplier beckons...

    Yeh some of those were great rifles! The qc wasn't the best and you need to watch the bore is concentric if getting it threaded as some were shocking! I modded a 177 one up to about 15fpe a while back.

    Picked this up the other day. Someone wanted to fit a scope to it so they welded some dovetails on. Rifle has USSR stamped on it but no name.Anyone know what make/model it might be?

    That would be my thoughts as well. Most were branded Toz but there were a few branded Baikal. Circa mid 70s to early 80s probably.

    TOZ16
    Had one back when I was 15 ( well I paid for it, and Dad put it on his licence )
    They had an unusual smell, always thought it was the polish on the wood.
    Good times

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Well he has completely wrecked/ruined the stock.
    It would be worth 200 but would need another stock. duh.
    Not a heavy rifle to start with. Wouldnt have made it bugger all lighter with the wood he removed and utterly ruined its balance
