And they're prone to problems. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Fri Dec 25, 2009 6:14 am packrat Senior Member Joined: 16 Nov 2009 Posts: 882 Location: Out in the woods...Ellabell, GA. Funny how peoples' tastes differ..I personally much prefer the out-of-the-ordinary look as far as looks go..The above rifles are just excellent to my way of thinking...remember, I cut a great BIG hole in the stock of my brand new Crosman Storm XT !!! And I just bought an NPSS, NOT your classic look rifle, and I've ordered the MA2250XT as well. With that in mind, you can see why I find the Cometa so appealing Although, it would look even better IMHO, with just a wee bit smaller bottle. I guess if I bought one I could put any size bottle on it that I wanted to, huh?? If they're gonna be in Daystate, I doubt that I'll ever own one..at least not new _________________ HEY !!

I seriously doubt it. You'd have to go trough some trouble, and I you'll just have to hope that they use the same threads as Daystate or Theoben, or BSA. That cometa stock just looks... pregnant or something. I mean, it wants to look like something, but it isn't what it is supposed to look like. Also, look how that trigger is located in the stock. The cheeckpiece is to small and the whole rear end of the stock looks out of proportion with the rest of the stock. The edges seem to be to smooth too. The stock just doesn't look finished... I'm a great fan of good aesthetics and while I don't like the stock on a Daystate or a Theoben, I can recognize the workmanship that went into it. And in my opinion, this didn't go into the stock of that Cometa. And it's not an excuse if it's cheaper. I've seen cheap rifles which had really well crafted stocks. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Fri Dec 25, 2009 3:54 pm kanyon Silver Status Member Joined: 09 Aug 2008 Posts: 1582 Location: New Zealand broommaster2000 wrote: packrat wrote: I guess if I bought one I could put any size bottle on it that I wanted to, huh??

Just dosn't look finished..broom.. Yer could be right..remember its a pre production model.. The production model may look a bit diffrent when it hits the shops..
