Beautiful piece mate, why the grey trigger guard ? Think I'd go for black same as the action but still a really nice rifle 👍🏻👌🏻

:D
It wont match my hair as I shave my nut bald.
Its a bit darker than the grey on my beard though

I was thinking of powder coating it but I'm with Kev on this and I think I like it, so it stays grey (for the minute)

I like it that grey colour 👍
Mine is black and it just looks "normal" 🤣

Hi Lee
Its an odd phrase to apply to any rifle I have, but you're right.

It certainly doesn't handle like a rapid any more.
Though I haven't handled an elan, I can imagine its similar.
Not unlike my old E type really, just feels more robust.

Superb matey I bet your over the moon with it. With it in this set up the rapid just feels so much different when shouldered   8)
