This is definitely one of my favourites! Bought her years ago. Deadly accurate. I rebuilt her last year as very twangy. Piston seal was dry as a bone but intact. New mainspring and she shoots lovely. Definitely a keeper. If I ever get time I should like to try bell target with her. Pretty sure that’s a factory aperture sight. She is number one calibre.

That is next level cool! Post a few cards you shoot with it sometime. Thanks for sharing and keeping that vintage beauty alive 👍
