steve_b_wales Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 If my memory serves me right, I had a Relum Tornado many moons ago, and the cocking 'lever' underneath, clipped into a socket at the end of the barrel. Plus, the pellets were inserted by pressing down on a small catch to open the breech. Your's could be a different model, although I'm not sure if they made another version. Have you stripped it down, as there may be something printed on the barrel etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy91 Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Looks very much like my SMK underlever, snowpeak or something it's called I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Relum never made a gun with a sliding breach - that's a Chinese effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strimmer_13 Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Smk lion/b3. My first air rifle. Shot my first rabbit with it. From what I remember the trigger was ****, recoiled like a donkey, and was noisy as sin. Used to use promethius pellets in it, when I felt flast and didnt have milbro caladonions or jets. Sadly, again, I've got my eye on one to buy 😂. I seem to have a thing collecting **** airguns of my past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wood on mine was horrible. I think I sold it to a school mate and upgraded to a bsa super sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaz25 Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 A real tractor of an airgun, easy to improve on as there very AK47, a good main spring and seal works very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he got some sort of a fine of £1.00 for every ftlb over the legal limit, he was well peeved. S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
