I bought my HW55M from the UGL in 1985. If I remember right, retail was $450 and I paid around $250. I didn't hunt at the time so I sold my FWB 124 in the plain stock to raise $ for it. I got my Beeman marked 124 from ad in Shotgun News for around $150 before the doc shut that outlet down. I'm trying to talk a cousin out of a 124 Deluxe at present....
Found this UGL list from 1995
When I quickly read the post title and "UGL" I didn't immediately associate with used gun list. I was thinking of a Theoben that I never heard of before in BPAG edition 17, 1992-1993. The gun is the UL-7 Repeater, offered only in .22. Sonny, you know anything about this one? Did this one precede the SLR 98?
Edit: Just looked again in that catalog and see another Theo that I was unaware of. The Classic Magnum offered in .20 and .25 hmmmm….
Both are listed on the same pages with the Crow Magnum also only offered in .20 & .25 at that time. Wonder what the first two are valued at...
I remember the UL-7 name, but cannot find it in my limited search of the beeman catalogs. I remember it was in a beeman catalog spread somewhere with another rifle.
According to the blue book, only eight were imported into the US.
The Theoben classic has a gigantic cheek rest. Mine is found here:

Dang, that Classic is a big stock.
Here is what I found. Note the *'s disclaimers on right middle of page with specs:
