My friend gave me a.....

[bluesman]

Italian RO 71 pistol.It really looks the part but based on the info. I have found
its a cheapo from the 70's constructed with cast metal body with zinc and
aluminium internals.Not one for the MPL leage I feel.If anyone is interested
there is a good and humorous article on srripping and rebuilding one.

hi glyn,well there is a very small sect of bbs mems who have examples of this pistol and its derivatives ;i have a friend!! who has a mint boxed example because he says it was his first entre to airguns so holds it for nostalgic reasons.incidently this friend does not own a fluorescent pink example as intimated by one of the senior mems of this forum.

I thought the pink one was the "RO72 Custom"
