POLISH AIR RIFLE

Post by DuncaninFrance » Sun Apr 15, 2012 4:51 pm

The same guy who has the Brocock Revolver also has this.

It is Polish. PREDOM - LUCZNIK Model KL.188
Calibre 4.5mm

It is a break-barrel action with a locking button so it can be carried with a sling.
It has a tapered barrel and as you can see, the front sling swivel actually bolts through the barrel.
The only downside seems to be the cheap scope :lol:

I got one of those as a freebie. Anything that it won't kill with a pellet can be beaten to death with the gun. Very solid.

Being of Polish ancestry, I'd love to have one of those. Can you tell me more about it?

All I know is that he found it in a flat he rented for a while in London and has kept it ever since.
It is certainly a solid gun with good power.

Well, here's an update to the story;

My pal has sold his house and is moving back to the UK - silly bugger - and is storing some of his stuff here for a while ( 6 months + ) and has 'donated some stuff as rental :razz: :razz:

This is one such item plus he has also given me an H Weihrauch rifle, Model H W 35 Calibre 5.5, sold by Hull Cartridge Company so it's a UK Import. It has a Scope fitted; Zieler 4 x 32 Waterproof. I will post some images later but this is from the manufacturers site.

He says the barrel is bent so I need to check that out first but it seems to be a very well built and substantial rifle. :cool: :cool: :cool:
