ok, so I was at my boyfriends house nad he menions he found something of his dad back when his parents where living together.
an old airgun rifle.
it's in still prety good shape, but the other metal is a bit rusted, but not by alot, just small specles of rust.
the stock is still in amazing shape at the expence of the but with is a bit worn out.
the barrel might need a bit of polishing, it has some dust/dirt in it.
I have't fired it yet, I did cock it a few times and try out the feel, has a hefty recoil and bang and is quite easy to cock also.
but my real question is, What kind of gun is it?
I looked arround on it, but found only one marking "Marla 45800", No safty arning, no logo, no nothing else ecept for these deep lines across wich seem to have been machine made.
so I head to google but get nothing to tell e what it is, seems the marla might have been an engraving, maybe the name of the gun? since his dad did go in the military and I know some folks there give there guns names. and the 45800 must be the searial code.
there are no plastic parts at all on this thing, even the sight is full metal. another odd feature is the lack of a safety, this thing has no safety what so ever. a few other things I noticedis that there is no scope mount or any way to put a scope, no rail, no holes, and no clips.
when cocking the barrel a quick thing you notice is the surrounding on the hole where you load it is leather, heavily worn leather in fact.
it uses .177 caliber bullets, and the barrel is rifled. and from what my boyfriend says the rifle has been in the shed for a couple of years, he also found some crosman match Pellets with it, it's a silver coloured tin much smaller than those I commonly see, a pack of 500, with the barcode on top of it a,d the labels are stickers an no simply the tin themselves.
anyhow, I'll post about my firring tommororw and tell yah how it handles.
and if somebody can identify it, it would be pretty sweet.
