That is a very desirable airgun.

There are several tuners available for it, and I'll wait to see if any respond here before making suggestions. A full tune might be $150 plus, but to get it working again might just be ~$30 parts and lubes and some mechanical ability.

If you like airguns at all, you should spend the money. Otherwise you would find buyers for it quickly, if priced within reason.

Thanks for your reply . I definately will keep it . Advise me on just getting it shooting vs. a pro tuning . I probably would do the full tune as I am particular and like great products at their full capacity .  Thanks again for your guidance .

You just might be able to talk Gene into that one. That is if you aren't in any big hurry.  8)  8)  It would be worth the wait.

I am a neophite to all this . I assume you mean Gene Curtis . He apparently is involved in this website and is in SC . If he is indeed a quality tuner ( I assume by your response that he is ) Then he would be good for me . I am ready to get this done but am more interested in the quality of the work than having it done next week . I do believe in doing things right the first time.   Hopefully Gene will see this and respond . Thanks to all . Louis

I hope you got in touch with Gene!

Yes, he is one of the owners of this site and in SC. If you click on a post with his name you can send him a PM (private message). His email addie is also linked at sales@airguntoys.com (sales@airguntoys.com).

We would love to see this one, with pix of it working again. Very nice find!

Gene worked under me for a couple of years and yes, Gene is a well qualified pro tuner and there are many members here that will attest to that.
