caeser Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Well I never. I remember the Relum Tornado really well. When I was a lad. Terrific air rifle in it's day, and if its restored ,then I can't see why it won't be a good 'un even today. I was tempted to buy it just for nostalgia, but she put me straight. I'm sure someone will love this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-peter Posted July 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 I know what you mean, it was the first good air rifle I could afford the tornado. back in 1956 I later bought an airsporter but didn't rate it power wise compaired to the relum, I once stone deaded a rat with open sights it was realy too far out to shoot, I gave it about 2 inches of top and fired the rat jumped 2 foot in the air and keeled over, we paced it out at 70 yards. id have missed it with my 12 bore. but my all time favourite was a bsa 177 cadet major. I sold one last year after reconditioning it and have regretted it ever since. I bought 3 tornado's last year as a job lot to get a better price. 2 mark 2s and this mark 1.ive kept a mark 2 and mounted some glass on it the mark one has a very strong spring and I have arthritis in the shoulders an can't cock it I think its called getting old. I think this one has a buyer . all the best ///pete/// Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
