    El Gamo Paratrooper(?)

    Hi,
    I have an old Elgamo paratrooper that I would like to exchange for an American pump up rifle, Daisy, Crossman or any .20 cal. or pistol (ok anything)
    The gun probably needs re bluing and the front sight is missing, there seems to be plenty of power but the trigger is a little stiff! I can supply pics if you send me your email address, would make a good project.

    It appears that Gamo paratroopers suck!

    Hi Ulverston

    Just wondered if it has a plastic grip and rear stock?

    I must say that looks quite appealing
    If you choke a smurf, what colour does it turn?

    It has a sturdy metal frame with plastic furniture on it.

    Have seen and had a play with this gun , it will need a reblue and foresight but thats all, it'll make a nice project for someone and when finished a nice addition to a collection. Certainly took me back a bit .
