    Air Arms EX88

    Did the EX88 have chequering on the side like the SE90?
    If not how do you tell a EX88 from a Mistral?

    "The EX88 was the replacement for the Mistral and in its first advertisements, it was called the Mistral EX88. First released in the middle of 1988, it had a short production run as Air Arms were moving out of sidelevers.

    It appears that the EX88 was originally designed for the Scandinavian market where it was supplied with a maple stock. UK variants had beech stocks.

    The EX88 was supplied without sights and with a brasss trigger. Airgun World reviews of the day couldn't speak highly enough of this rare model.

    Weight 7.5 Ibs
    Length 39.75 inches"

    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
