At last, I have one! I even had a nice little Brucie-Bonus when I found it still had gas in it, so the seals are in good shape! 😱🤪🤦 It's a big bugger...

Well done Mark. Now let us know how it shoots.

They are undoubtedly one of the best co2 pistols ( yes it is a replica) to come out of the 1970`s. well made, sturdy, reliable and accurate ..plus ... the .22 78G packs a hefty punch. Enjoy.
Pete.

I had a look at Marks new weapon today and it is quite big.

On a serious note, I kind of regret not getting my hw45 black star in .22 for the smoother experience. My first was the silver star and .177, repeated same again this time . Plus with my sausage fingers, .22 are easier to load!😀

Just for reference, Model 41 vs 78g. Good enough replica for me. Very nice.

Very nice, have you put it through a chrono, some do more than 6ftlbs, especially during hot weather.
