    .22 Gat

    This might be judged as being in the wrong section but as I am asking a question as well as looking for a gun the Wanted section did not seem right.

    I have a packet of 'Gat' darts in .22 calibre, has anyone ever seen a .22 Gat?

    If anyone out there has one for sale please let me know.

    Right section, happy to see this here, especially as that is quite an interesting conundrum. Note however, would a Gat be able to muster enough power to propel a .22 dart to the end of the barrel ???

    One I know of.

    Phoenix G60 was the .22 version of the .177 G50. ( 'modern' gats )
    Company was trading in Kent until the mid 90's I think, now defunct.

    More to follow when I get home and check my records, although I firmly expect there will be other replies very soon!

    Hi Lodmoor,

    Don't know anything about .22 gats... but I do remember buying some of them .22 darts from Haymans, on the quay in Weymouth, would have been around the mid 80's...my old Meteor wasn't fussy!

    There never was a Harrington Gat in .22, and the Gat .22 darts were just part of the Harrington range of ammo' for other makers airguns. If you do find a .22 Harrington Gat the it is either an incredible rarity or a fake!
