I've provided pictures to help your decision about this item. Got it years ago at a neighborhood rummage sale. I don't know much about guns and am not a collector or able to give technical details about this gun. It pumps well, shoots fast (not measured by me, but I've read this is a powerful pumper). Pumps smoothly, holds air, bolt good, safety works. I found it to be not as accurate as I'd like, due perhaps to a round projectile and smooth barrel? One problem that I cannot figure out how to remedy, when placing a bb into the single shot chamber, it slides in nicely yet when gun is titled downward, often rolls out. Not sure what mechanism or other way the bb is supposed to be held. I've read there is an adjustment (see pics) for seating the bolt which is for pressure containment, I'd guess.
This is a vintage item that shows signs of wear on stock (a very small "dent" in wood and the scratches and whatever else that is (see pics). I have not tried to refinish anything as it seems vintage should not be touched unless someone knows what they are doing. I am not offering refunds as I don't know enough about the mechanics of guns to want to take it back after any potential damage caused after the sale. Selling in good faith that it's a worthy item.
Pay pal only, payment must be received within 2 days of auction end. Charging flat $20 shipping (to the continental US only.) I will ship standard USPS (2-9 days) shipping, well packed and protected.
