I have owned 3 over the last 46 years. 2 in 5mm and 1 in 22. My first was while I was Living in England back in the 1970s. I had permission to shoot collard doves at a flour mill that were causing a health concern. I probably whacked several thousand over a 3 year period. With 6 pumps of the handguard it was very accurate out to about 35 yards using Sheridan pellets.

I dont know if 5mm pellets are still available or not. On a gun that old I would check to see if it still pumps, and holds air. You may want to check e-bay, they have a number of guns and parts listed.

Byron...

The one I still shoot occasionally is .22 cal and is not as accurate as the 5mm.
