Well she made it here, the Gamo Viper with a wood stock.tat2man aka Barry had put her up on the selling block and after twisting my own arm I took her. She came in the origonal box with another box for extra protection. I got her in the shop and opened the boxes, the Viper looked new as did the stock. :) First thing, check the whole unit and screw's, habit hehe and all was great. I headed up to the chrony to see how she was feeling, loaded a Gamo Master Point and put one through 860fps, good. I did have to adjust the famous Gold trigger though to my liking, it was alittle to quick for me. Adjusted so I ran ten shot's through, avg. 867fps. It's a good start and will work fine for hunting, will test some other brand's of pellet's later. The Viper all in all look's like new, cocking is quiet with a solid lockup. From what I'm looking at Barry took very good care of her and I'm impressed with the Viper, love her in wood. I will give a infield report, hunting hehe. and keep all updated and thank's to Barry for prompt shipping and working out a good deal with me. She's got look's that can kill hehe. Ed

Thank's Jeff, got to get another Golden Antler and mount and should be set for hunting. The Viper really look's sharp in wood and I think I'll get a lamp and laser and make her a nightstalker like the ShadowSport. Ed

Good going Ed,

She's a real beauty, I was a lookin at her many times over in the Classified Gate ! But I had to control myself, I can't be buying every pretty thing that comes along and turns my head...
Looking forward to your review of your new baby, and best of luck with her !

Anytime Barry, I just met another farmer who's got cattleland full of p-dog's. The cattle will be out in October and I was told to get as many as I can hehe. Hundred's of them out there, I see a tin of Predator's emptying real fast. :) Ed
-
maybe we could send the girls shoppin for a day or 2????????????????
-
Hmmmm, now's that's a idea hehe. Ed
-
Barry, is that a Hunter 440 stock? I read somewhere that they interchange with a Viper and Gamo sells them at a reasonable price. I like the synthetic stock OK but wood is good and easier to modify.
-
Not Barry but I'm pretty sure it's a 440 stock, I like it. :) Ed
-
Very nice Ed, and that is a Gamo 440 stock for sure buddy..:) Sure looks sweet with that bull barrel..:)
