   Hi Guys,
I'm wanting to get back into air gunning again. Can I ask for some advice please? I've got an old rifle that I'd like to try and sell to put towards a more modern one. It's called an Original 35 .22 Made in Germany and there is a very small 05 77 which I think might be the date of manufacture as I've had it since about mid 80's. Are these old guns worth anything or have they been superseded now by the new gas piston designs?

	Hi Andy, I had one of those in the 1960's - superb springers. I think they were made by Milbro (?) until Diana got the Trademark back after WWII.... something like that anyway! Shot many a woodpigeon in England with that rifle! Might be worth a good service (by Ron Young?) and perhaps a keeper? If you're looking for a new Springer, I highly recommend the Weihrauch models: HW77, HW95, HW97 or HW98 are all brilliant. Or are you considering a PCP?
