Interesting.... Quackenbush is my mother's family name and yea, we are distant relatives to the gentleman who invented that gun.

If I’m not mistaken there’s still a Quackenbush air rifle company in TX think it is . They build kinda a semi custom deal .

Heck of a coincidence this thread started and two days ago my brother in law was after my wife to have me bring a I think it’s called cpc air rifle to him in the Philippines . I’ve always been sort of intrested in the big bore 35 cal and up . So naturally I started looking around
