Pistol-what is it?

[christy]

Bought a pistol, no name .177 break barell, brown plastic woodwork, says RO72 cal .177 on the side. Made in Italy serial number 042135. Any ideas?

Sounds like my old Phoenix arms pistol. Best bet is put a picture up and someone will ID it for you.
Failing that, send me a pic and I'll put it up for you

It sounds like a Panther DeLuxe RO72 Bullseye made by "Gun Toys"

It should look something like this....http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...therDeLuxe.jpg

Thats the one, I got mine from Phoenix Arms, But it was identical and it had the name Panther, spent ages trying to remember.

Mine had a replaceable back cup and when fitted, it had a bent steel rod stock so could be used as a carbine. It may still be in my loft May have a look when I'm forced to get the xmas decco's down
Bah Humbug!

I had one of these back in the 80's. Would you believe I was thinking about it the other day and could not remember what make it was. Mine had plastic handles not a bad little break barrel. That is until Skeltz broke the cocking rail in two dont ask, I never did.
Now I wonder what power they run at?

Yeah mine was back in the 80's too
Dunno about the power, but I put a dart through my bedroom door with one (early egg box door) trying to hit a bluebottle.

Missed it but got the bugger later with my rangemaster .22 in the lounge My ol'e man went mental with me.

Ahhhhh "Youth huh?" them were the days, Im much to sensible since I got married
