A first-version Diana model 50M ("Match"), from about 1958. This one carries the "Peerless" logo, as imported by AF Stoeger's back in the day, and unusually for a target rifle is in .22 caliber. (Stoeger's didn't believe in wimpy low-powered guns, or the dinky Euro .177 caliber - they brought in only the top-of-the-line Diana 35 and 50, and all in .22!)I do have the correct original Diana "double-function" rear sight for it, but for today's fun I substituted the later and more versatile Diana Diopter 75, carrying a Parker-Hale "Iris" eyepiece with PH 62 eyeshade, colored filter ring, and PH-to-German thread adapter.
Crosman 1400
That's some good range Sam! I have a tin of the 17.9 grn. Sniper Magnum's for many months I haven't tried out.I'll give them a try in my 65' 140 and 73' 1400. I'll post some Chrono tests tomorrow (on the Vintage Site) since I already have the chrono out.I too love the 1400 and 140. They're indestructible beasts! You're 1400 is beautiful! Rich
Beautiful day out with a Air Arms Side Lever Camargue. Not very common over here. One of the last old school tap loaders. Really hits with authority 11.5 FPE. One of the nicest guns I own. With that scope can’t really miss in my backyard. Lol
A couple of pistols, a Crosman 454, and Crosman 38T. Both needed seals, and after a couple of days figuring out the innards, and a few re-do's, they are both shooting like new. Fun pistols, and I see some soda cans dancing in the near future.
1978 Crosman 1400, (new rear sight) blasting cans.
Keep thinking I will break out the new to me R7 just can't seem to find the joy that should be there
From the Midwest Airgun Show new pickup BSA Stutzen. Carbine with full length stock. It’s still the honeymoon but I think it is probably the most beautiful rifle I own.
