I agree it's a looker. What is your opinion on how long the polymer coated breach area will last being worked against the steel compression tube?

I am in agreement with Bill, except the barrel is not all that heavy because of lack of steel. Just a rifled thin tube covered in Poly. Not like the older Gamo's which utilized the full steel barrel. These new barrels have tendency to bend easily. The poly breech is not the perfect setup for a break barrel in my opinion either. But if maintained properly and not abused they can be very good shooters. I would prefer an all steel rifled barrel on this new model..:)

Wouldn't the wooden stock make it heavier?  That is what I like about the Gamo rifles they are nice and light!  However, those are beautiful!  

BTW, I hope I never have the problems some folks have mentioned with their Gamo rifles. Mine has been a dream it is so good.

That's a first....a whisper Royal. That entire setup in the pictures might run ya about $275-300 atleast....However, I have never seen this type of setup before. It does look like a shooter indeed.....Hopefully they have that in a .22 cal setup as well! Nice find Gene =]

Don;t know if the Classic is about the same as the Royale, but there's a plug for these at a good price on the Bargain forum.
