Nah, just one of each. π The Daisy Powerline 790 was the best for accuracy today.

One day, yes one day, a S&W-79G will be in my collection but everytime I've seen one for sale I've been 'financially challenged', one day the timing will be right....one day Great shooting BTW, what sort of distance was you shooting from ?

I have a nice S&W 78G which is very powerful, but a bit greedy on gas. Many members of the club I shoot at had .22 LR S&W Mod 41s on which these replicas were based. Brian

That was at 10m, straight out of the case with no sighting in from the last time it was used. I was well chuffed.

Something to get your juices going... (robbed off the AGF π) Certainly got my juices going there buddy, it just made me want the 79G even more ! Hopefully 2024 will be the year I finally manage to get hold of one, I'll have to start saving now though as they ain't cheap especially if it's in mint condition, my only problem is that if ASG, Umarex, Gletcher ( et al) bring out something nice I'll then divert' my cash towards that and be saying "Maybe 2025 will be the year I finally get myself a 79G" again in about a years time His 79G looked immaculate, well they both did but I've only got eyes for the 177 version (God's calibre, lol)
