Left handed TX200 mk2 beech stock - swap for right handed

I have just bought my first TX200 today...which is a left handed Mk2 in .177

I'd like to swap the beech left handed stock (or possibly the left handed stock with left handed matching cylinder or the whole rifle if needs be) for a right handed one. It's in fairly good condition...no deep scratches or stud holes.

Cash adjustment either way if required as necessary.

Happy to send photo's on request.

I'll chrono test tomorrow & know more about how it shoots.

Regards,
Jim, Lincoln

Hello Jim

I am right handed but shoot LH. I have just bought a mint, not a mark anywhere, MK3 RH 177, are the stocks the same? I manage it ok 5p groups at 25mtrs. Just ordered Tinbums pro kit and titan spring for mine. Don't really know why it shoots fab 11.4flbs.

Hi Dennis,
As far as I've been able to find out, the stocks are interchangeable but there are 2 shallow cutouts on the top surface - 1 for the anti bear trap lever & 1 which is about 4mm deep x 45mm long for the loading port.
The loading port one is on the other side (left) on my stock, but it will be on the right on yours.

I could inlet the stock to suit a right hand loading port & stain & lacquer to suit, then post some pictures if that sounds of interest to you.
