in all honesty the money you would spend on a new stock ect would be better put on a new gun and sell your one,the bsa ultra se is a fine gun as is the scorpion ;)
the Weihrauch moderator is the best ive used for airguns i have used plenty of others but the hw is the one i keep ;)

lamping kits i know nothing about

yup my favourite pcp so far,if my verminator was 22 it would win but its not :lol:

nice compact rifles,quick to point and easy to shoot,i liked the mmc system but a lot didn't.the se version has a extra 10 shots and a normal bolt for loading,the original ones had mag issues but bsa fixed them about 2/3 years ago,you can tell as the new version are numbered 1-10 for shots remaining and coloured red or blue inside for 177 or 22.
the ultras are surprisingly accurate and quiet .
for the money they are unbeatable in my honest opinion,they have a lower shot count than some pcps but the se is giving 50 usable shots per charge in 22 where the old ones were giving 40
