Saxby Palmer Revolver

A little update on this, I haven’t actually shot it much, however I have got some newer cartridges for it and a charging head that works with my pcp foot pump - so 1-2 pumps vs 8 on the slim Jim!

We are also starting air pistol shooting at my local club, so this is somewhat morphine into a target revolver..

I added a steel bull barrel shroud I sourced from an air cartridge guru in UK, as well as walnut grips which are nicely contoured.

used to be able to get kits to restore the cartridges seals,may still be able to so worth checking out ,pretty clever things those cartridges,they are a work of art in themselves ,this ones a keeper Jono as they are quite rare in nz particually in that conditition,and very few were ever imported here/

just  remembered bit history on these cartridge airguns,they came out due to co2 pistols being banned in the UK years ago,thats since changed but at time they were banned co2 pistols for some reason,and brocock and saxby palmer came out with these to replace the co2 pistols they were too expensive to fully replace co2 pistols for many shooters and the co2 ban was eventually lifted and they became not so desirable anymore,not sure how many were made and sold or evan if still made but both companys still exist making mostly pcp rifles these days,not that many came nz before they got designated particually danderous airguns and put on permit only so disappeared into collections on licence,i know of a couple still around here being used,powerwise bout equal to a 22 cal co2 pistol producing approx 450fps with 12 gr pellet from memory so bout equal to a 22 cal 2240 standard co2 pistol.
