Some images of a .177 venom hw77K... pics were taken in hurry in poor light.
It took several hours for my brother to clear this from delhi customs. They insisted custom duty is 53%...
Photographs do not do justice to the quality of work.. bluing & engraving are just superb...
engraving on the muzzle..
will post better quality pics...

though I am not a big fan of engraving but that one looks cool and above all its Venom..
Congrats Sat, can you please post what problems / procedure your brother faced at delhi airport so that some members (who keep insisting that one can't bring air rifles as personal baggage if not memebr of club via delhi) have something to think about
Have fun with it.. please post pics of full rifle when you have time.

A really sweet looking rifle! Would have posted a longer rave, but am too busy keeping my envy in check!!!
Congratulations once again - to the only owner of a full custom Venom HW (in India)!
Cheers!

Congrats, Sat.
Didn't know that one could get customised Weihrauchs. Mack The Knife must be drooling over his one

Very nice Rifle. Good engraving. Enjoy shooting with it. Congratulations. HW are excellent products. Even their .22 LR range HW 80 is quite good, had an opportunity to shoot one in the Sharjah Shooting club a few weeks ago.
Now they are developing .223 and other calibres in centrefire.

Pran, Venom (now known as V-Mach) have been customising airguns for some time now. The Weihrauchs are one of their favourite platforms for such work.
Mack The Knife must be drooling over this one.
Errr... never mind.

Not at all. It has a Venom Maglaza tune and internal component parts but there is no Venom bluing, Don Blocksidge engraving (never did quite float my boat) or Venom stock.
The stock you see on my 80k is an ordinary Weihrauch stock that I have stippled and oil finished.
Herewith a link to another thread showing pics of the same rifle.

Shahid,
Weihrauch's .22lr bolt action rifle is designated HW60J, not HW80.
