Don't know much if anything about the CO2 pistols. I have a couple of the Polish WZ. 1970 trainers which are single shot cocking pistols, but that is all the air gun experience I have.
Any and all info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
Previous owner said he had it resealed, but was a few years ago, hadn't shot it since.
Was just looking at the bolt, I guess that is what it's called, appears the o-ring is split. Just ordered a kit to replace it and any or all others.
PS, you'll like it as soon as you get it shooting. They shoot great. You will see a drop off in velocity and grouping just before the cartridge runs out.
Manic,
I wouldn't go overboard on the pellets. Just start with a package of Gamo, Daisy or Crosman standard pellets. See how it shoots then decide if it's worth it to you to spend the money chasing smaller groups.
They are great shooters and should shoot well for many years if maintained. They require the use of a little Pelgunoil to keep the seals from drying out.
Replacing the seals is easy and can be done with simple hand tools. Kits are available from several sources based on my recent experience getting one for a friend's pistol. Many times, the exhaust valve is also worn and needs to be replaced. Some kits will include them, too.
Check Baker Air Guns if ebay does not have what you need.
Had ond when I was 15, loved it. Bought another years later. You can replace the cap/piercer in the grip with a plug/compressor fitting and use your air compressor to charge it up.
Wow, I purchased a 78G .22 in 1978. Shot it in my college dorm room, telephone book shooting range. Shot quite well, still does. Got replacement seals from Numrich, did a little stone work on the trigger sear. Not a masterpiece but was always fun to use for popping cans on camping trips. Introduced dozens of people to pistol shooting with it. As I said, I still own it, fun gun.
It looks a lot like a Smith & Wesson Model 41 22 rimfire. Has anyone ever had a chance to handle both? I am curious if if would be a good Bullseye Pistol trainer.
