We bought it not knowing anything about it; never even heard of it. It would not work.
Pump is akin to a bicycle pump on the front of the action, inlet valve is basically an old style bicycle tyre valve .. the old type with a rubber sleeve on it. Exhaust valve a pretty simple rubber disc similar to that from a water tank ball valve. Setting it up correctly is a matter if trial and error to get the sealing correct, but once done the power is quite impressive at about 8 - 10 pumps. and this was using 5.5mm pellets sized down to 5.4mm as I could not find any 5.4mm lead ball (they still make them but are not available in UK; most likely available in Sweden / Norway but the shops I visited did not have them). Quite an oddity.

Cheers, Phil
Repaired and resealed the Bahco equivalent of the Swedish Excellent rifle. Had to re-size pellets for the bore size. Baz
