Default Dream 12 ft/lbs Air Rifle

hi there guys and gals,
if you were to make a U.K. legal air rifle from scratch and had all of the resources that you needed to make it, what design features would you build into it?

would it be a multishot rifle or a single shot?
floating barrel or fixed? etc etc etc.............

if it were me it would have to be a PCP. I would have an electronic trigger just like the daystate mk3 but with the adjustability of a super 10 trigger, a fully floating match grade barrel, aircraft grade alloy air cylinder, super duper fantasidoozy regulator of some description, synthetic thumb hole bullpup stock with engraving down it, 20 shot magazine system, bull barrel, some form of electronic cocking and pellet rotation device, built in lazer guidence system (ok maybe a bit over the top),hydrographics paint job and a fast loading pellet sytem for the magazines.

we can all dream i guess, so start to dream now and tap away on this thread.
you never know it may come true one day

I got mine my S10 Bull barrel made buy Mr Bowkett with my CS800 one off stock, the only thing I would change is the mag, I would go for something like the AA410 mag but with a stop like the S10.
I like the 410 mag as it does not have any springs etc and is simple to take apart and clean if needed.
I would change this gun as it fits me like a glove and shoots superbly.

Now if we were taking scopes I would have something like my Deben DMP 10 x 42 with a built-in laser rangefinder that also altered your zero once it had found it's distance.
This would have to be set up to the gun it was being used on, but just think of it you see a bunnie you take aim press a small button on the side of your stock which tells you the distance in a digital readout inside the scope, press the button again and it re-zero's the scope for that said distance so you aim smack on every time.
Now this would take the fun out of it for say HFT or plinking but would be great for hunting as you would be sure of a clean kill everytime.

Heres one i wanted finished two years ago to take to N Ireland, didnt make the dead line. 99% of the action is made complete with reg, aluminium air tube, QF, back venting muzzle break, etc 2.8Lb in weight, shame the aluminium stock will probably weigh in at 8 to 12Lb if it ever gets finished.

Cant see the point of electronic trigger, its a physical impossibilty they cannot match a mechanical unit, but for marketing and production they are the biz.
