Title: Scored a mint 130
Post by: Crosshairs on May 25, 2012, 01:28:04 PM

I picked up this 130 last weekend she looks like a new gun but does need seals shoots but weak.

Very nice find.  It is getting harder to find 130's in this kind of condition.

I got lucky Mike i almost got a different one a few weeks ago but waited for a nicer one and found it.

You don't see a 130 in condition like that every day. Great find.

I've had a couple interesting versions
J.C Higgins (Sears) version was a project for a friend, restored and resealed it. Has allot of similar parts to the 150. Sears were built to different specs.
Notice the white spacer.
The Hawthorne is the Montgomery Wards version.
I slipped a piece of shrink fit tubing over the pump grip of the Hawthorne, makes it a little nicer to pump.
