Show em - Single stroke/Pump Pneumatics, the more exotic the better!

I just got my 853 today. The stock is in good shape. Some minor scuffs and some dirt. But it will clean up . There is a little bit of paint chipping but otherwise it is good.
I don’t have time to do anything right now. But I fired two shots and it shoots well and has zero recoil.

I think they did. My light stock is apparently poplar.

Poplar is a lightweight wood for stocks.

Here is one of my favorite Walther's. It's a one-off LG 55 "ambidextrous". The story goes it was built for the wife of a Walther employee who was a southpaw. Both she and her husband shot competition in Germany and both liked shooting the gun.

BTW; American Vintage Airguns has one of the most extensive airgun galleries on the web. Well worth the time exploring.

I have several, mostly pistols. A couple of the AV 46m models, and then Daisy 747, and 777, rebuilt numerous models of each for my son, grandson, and myself, then a HW 75. I recently got a FWB 602, the barreled action is out to be resealed and I am working on refinishing the stock, it is one of the meistergrade models, the one with a nice walnut stock.

I mounted the better Avanti peep sight and sighted it in. I’m really sick at the moment but needed to shot my new toy. I have to say the trigger is very interesting . I read all about the trigger modifications that can be done and watched all the repair videos expecting to have to rebuild the vintage gun. But it shoots fine. The trigger is a plastic single stage trigger that brakes at a wooing 4 pound. I am such a trigger snob I cringe and anything above 1.5 pounds. But I can’t see any reason the change this. It is single stage so I just put my fingers on the blade and make good contact. At 4 pound's it won’t go off. Then I squeeze the trigger and the gun goes off. There is no recoil very little sound. The trigger is crisp and consistent. Even my HFT 500 has some reaction to the pellet leaving the barrel. This gun just sends the pellet. Zero recoil. Even less than the 499 BB gun. Amazing

the cocking lever needs adj. it is a bit too tight , the bolt on all of them feels like it does nothing but they do work

I really appreciate that adjustable cocking lever. Just roll it toward the top of the gun to loosen it and vise versa with the little teeth on it.

i didn't see anyone post the AIR LOGIC these were a single stroke .22 and one .177 (DESIGNER)
A 12fp rifle that is a handful. You push the barrel up in shroud to load pellet.

That is IT! The holy grail of SSP's
I looked for many years before FINALLY finding one. I'll try to post some pics when I get a chance. VERY few made and even fewer in the US. What serial # is yours?
