My friend in Kansas with #54 says his gun will not shoot R10 wadcutters.He has to cock and fire four times before they do.
I think from the pictures we have found the problem.Look at the photo of the breech.Looks like it was cut with a Dremel..
Tom Gaylord's AV 46M seems to work:https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2020/12/the-av-46m-single-stroke-pneumatic-match-air-pistol-part-1/https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2020/12/the-av-46m-single-stroke-pneumatic-match-air-pistol-part-2/
He is not too handy but I will ask.BTW he said no RWS pellets will shoot in his #54.AA/JSB no sweat.I suspect the head/skirt has something to do with it.
Why would the guns be de-tuned for export out of Russia. USA has no power restrictions on air pistols (a few exceptions). Canada does. UK does. Russia does...What is the power limit in Russia?https://www.airgunbuyer.com/international-airgun-power-levels/6fpe..The IZH46M and AV46 cannot achieve 6fpe....The IZH46M was imported for years from Russia and was never de-tuned.Gaylord’s AV46 is putting out 500fps.Bovine cookies!
