Farmboy91 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 I can remember an advert (I think) that used to be in possibly Air Gun or Air Gunner magazine in the early 2000's or so for an air rifle that used to strip down. There were two models and they had a full page add, all black and all metal from what I remember. I was watching something on YouTube the other day about an air gun that came apart and it started the brain ticking. I can't imagine they done overly well because I have had a look on Google but couldn't find anything, just be interested to see if I could find a review or even what happened to the company.

Konor Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) There was a take down Colchester Game Keeper air rifle I remember from the late 1980s early 1990s.If you google it you’ll see Holts had one up for auction with two barrels and there is a paragraph or so with some background information. It looked like it had an old slr pistol grip Edited September 8, 2020 by Konor Addition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Was it spring powered or PCP? There was a PCP rifle that used the air reservoir as the butt stock that took down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a PCP, it could have used the tank as the stock but I can't remember for sure, it could well have had a like a roll up wallet it all packed away into.

No, think like half the size, as in skinnier lol, it was more the dimensions of a ratcatcher than the Login. I'm sure I remember showing my old man and him saying ' that's a poachers gun' 😂.

theshootist Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) They are interesting rifles. It took me a while to fine one. Mine is a single shot trailsman. He also made an 8 shot repeater which had a fixed magazine and one with a buddy bottle. Here is the advert https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2F18w%2F6287926305&psig=AOvVaw2WE3Ts6v4ITqNAQKT-RpYa&ust=1599664854933000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCNjfxI3u2esCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE Edited September 8, 2020 by theshootist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
