Anybody got a good memory?

Hi guys, I need somebody with a good memory for for air pistols from back around 1963. I'm pretty sure that it was Russiian and had a name milar to Vostok. It had a wooden pistol grip that came back over the web bit between thumb and forefinger.

Has that jogged any memories

There was a Vostok .22 rimfire target pistol, I had one. Is this the one or are you refering to an air pistol.

It was definitely an air pistol.
The look is very similar to the images shown but the colouring is warmer, more a honey colour than that shown and the pull back over the web went further.

The 'pull back over the web' is called a beavertail I believe

The only one I remember was a Margolin pistol I had. That was a .22 rimfire. See link....
