Stumbled across this on an auction sight for what i thought was a good price.After many PM's to the seller I bit. It has a pedigree of names according to the seller... including Fletcher. He shipped it with a partial charge to proves it hold Co2... resealed 20 years ago.This is my first Vintage bulk fill Co2 gun... other than my Mac 1 Sheridan Model F... they have all been more modern.It arrived safe and sound. Yes, it looks well kept for 60 years old.About now I am torn to refinish or keep it original.
Thank you James...I think.

So sorry Dave, I thought I hit "reply" but instead I clicked "modify" ( moderators rights).Tried to correct it but it was all F'ed up.
I kind of like that "tells a story look"Nice leather sling!

As are all of the early pre 1969 Co2 Rudy Merz Crosman guns were! I am duly impressed by the Umarex-Crosman new Generation of full-auto BB Machine Guns being currently produced! Worth checking out! Tons of fun! All of these are Bulk-Fed!.....just like the "Old days!" dave
I have used a sling for a shooting aid for decades, not just to carry the gun. Many springers don't like it, but my CO2 / HPA (and PB's) guns almost all wear one, it they are capable.On another note, when I install the 1/8" fill nipple, do I need to put the check needle in or does the gun have it's own check valve (pretty sure it does?)

I have the UZI that I modded to full auto years ago, I would think it could also be bulk fed. It is fun to shoot, but you only get one good burst with a 12g Co2
