#1 Air Arms - Pro Target - the real TANGO ! ?

Anyone got more pics of this ? am curious about stock build and want to see how it came about :?:

NB: me thinks IMHO that the Ansc. 9015 & perhaps the MEC meccano look has had an inspirational role and inspired a rationale engineering approach behind this ....but as yet not sure until we see the full side view of the stock to make out- what is what ...

No idea who designed and made it but hats off for ingenuity from rear of action back.
Sorry to say forend a different story cant figure the logic or necessity.

Even the pistol grips well done but out to the side to get a thumb up. Doable with finger in line not off a pattern modded to bolt on as most are, just means more thought in to designing and making the stock to do so. First rule drummed in to spotty faced kids last 200 odd years was point finger where intend to aim, so why have a grip out to the side or at extremes from certain stockers pistol grip that far out finger points upwards as well straining wrist in unnatural fashion.

Would have thought a decent butt pad could have been designed, pretty basic.
Because out of plastic I do wonder if anything can be tightened up with constant movement and resetting. Just don't knock it either, breako.

Plus side it should be light and uses carbon fibre tube, just not fond of plastic clamps and adjusters.
No lateral movement of cheek a necessity more so with adjustable cast off stocks, learned way back in 1996 way before Feinwerkbau 2011 remember where the good ideas come from still have that stock.

Do like it though and the colour though too much of it.
If a jobs worth doing, do it right or not at all.

OrangOtang .177.
Only kidding , but I have to say , I think it looks brilliant.
Saying that , unless it shoots really well , it ain't really any use .
It's great when new things/styles come on to air weapons, who ever your are ,it's a great looking air gun.

Ok, as rare as the dodo bird...she's resurfaced...

Martin, any chance for multi angle pic shots (some zoomed in for details) and have the owner mini interviewed how he came out with this ? (or send him this link so he can have his say)

Nice pics as usual BTW
