Are the pistols all in one class, or are there seperate classes for spring, ssp, pcp, etc?
I'm not trying to make more work for you, honest!

They'll all be scored in one class, Garry.

Remember that the Vintage comp starts on 29 August. This is going to be a pure-fun, occasional (only in the months where there IS a 5th Saturday) competition: no leader board. It will be for rifles and pistols (separate scoring categories).
IF there's sufficient interest I might add pistol crossbows, too.

Hi Jim
Serious question. I keep going back to that seriese of pictures on Kranks website. Apart from the desire to own a historic pistol I have spotted this: http://www.henrykrank.com/vap112.html and I want to know what class it falls into. OK for this contest it doesn't matter. But what about the main comp?
Regards

Jim, that pistol doesn't appear to be a springer, CO2, or PCP, for sure: and in my opinion, it probably wouldn't qualify as an SSP either. It looks like a Multi (vs. Single) Stroke Pneumatic: aka a "pump-up".
Main comp doesn't have any categories for same.
However, my recommendation (just so, not a binding decision) is that because it's akin to an SSP, and because it doesn't offer any advantages over an SSP (probably the other way around, actually), it should be permitted in the SSP category.

This may be the one, copied from Pyramid Air
The Crosman 130 pneumatic was made from 1953 to 1970. It was a multi-pump pneumatic in .22 caliber, plus a model 137 in .177 was also made. These guns replaced the model 105/106 multi-pump pistols that had been in the Crosman line since 1947. Where the 105/106 guns were conventional in all ways, the 130/137 were groundbreaking new airguns.
