Pigeon Shredder. Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Hi all, Friend of mine has acquired an Airsporter but cannot find which Mk it is. The loading port is the thing that has us stumped as it has a cover that roll's over and across the barrel, so go's left to right, it's of machined aluminium and the port itself is sculpted so as you just drop the pellet in and push to locate and then the cover rolls over to cover the port. Any information greatly received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbaz Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Yep- RB2 (Rotary Breech), I have a carbine version, I swapped it for a Crosman match pistol then bought it back from him, I didn't know at the time that it was doing 13ft lbs, My mate stripped it and chopped the spring so it's doing slightly over 11ft lbs and tuned it to be smoother, It's a lovely gun now!

johnbaz Posted February 25, 2017 Report Share Posted February 25, 2017 Built by Gamo I believe - not even a real BSA . Most likely, I'm not sure!! I had a couple of BSA Lightnings that were Spanish (Or so I was told even though it says Made in England on the barrels!) Only have the Mk1 now, I sold the XL.. These are true Brit's though As are most of these John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
