    Valuation wanted for boxed "Milbro Cub" Air Pistol

    As title, left with me by a friend yesterday for selling. Its a boxed French Pneumatir 500 Air Pistol, the original version of what's also known as the Milbro Cub. No user manual but otherwise believed complete with spare seals, ammo, rearsight, rod for clearing jams, and spinning ? target. I don't have any means of hosting piccies but can send them to anyone else who can do so for me. What's a fair price to ask for it please ?

    Regards, Vic Thompson.

    Unhappy

    I've never seen one of these in the flesh but I remember them from the old catalogues

    How exactly does it work with the squeeze bulb affair?

    I haven't used one for years, and in this case, the squeeze bulb has perished although I'm told that functional replacement bulbs are readily available as still in use for other purposes. This reference (I hope that the original "publisher" doesn't object to my including it in this posting) explains more about the item.

    Well there's been one for sale at Henry Kranks for at least 18months at £245 so that's obviously to dear.
