I have seen the "replica" air rifles made several years ago in the Kentucky full stock style. Made by Daisy for the 1976 Bicentennial I believe. I've thought about restocking a break barrel air rifle to look like one. I'm into black powder firearms and have several rifles, full stock Kentucky style and half stock Hawken style.

There was a Kentucky style replica around a few years ago, I think that Wild Bill knows more about it than I do, hopefully he'll pop up and give us the lowdown..... |

Pioneers are not that rare , they do turn up. I have one . It fires standard steel and lead BBs and is Great fun but don't shoot at anything more alive than flies. Wasps get very angry when you miss and upset them
They are however, very cheaply made and the stock and 'brasswork' is plastic with the latter being quite fragile

Such a great looking rifle.  |
