What does Nick Murphy do to the Anschutz to have them 'Zenefied' :?:

Is it correct to presume "Zenith" is the brand belonging to the chap ?

Would be good to know so as to understand what and any differences between a JH, a Zenefied Anschutz or even versus a Dave Welham AirMaster88 ...

Am surprised his contact details are difficult to find on any UK forum...must ONLY be by word of mouth to get OK'd and given the details to speak to the guy... :shock: :o (just a guess)
