This came from a gun collector's estate. He said it was a 1962 model but I cannot verify that.
I shot 5 pellets through it with 6 pumps each time. The five averaged 555 fps. The wear is so slight as to be nearly non-existent. I was going to add it to my own collection but realized I have too many already. The rifled barrel is perfect and the very unusual natural tiger striping of the walnut stock made this too nice to pass up.
