Regulars will know I'm looking for a particular Original 75 used internationally and nationally by my wife, now I've given up and I'm looking for a suitable candidate to build a replica from.

We believe hers was one of the first into the UK, if not the first as she was the only GB team member using an Original, and the importers got her an early one, but we can't remember exactly when, (old farts!). She won a medal at the British Airgun Championships at Cardiff in 1977, but can't remember if that was with her previous Original 66, or with the 75, if the 75 was available then it would have been with that. She also won medals at Intershoot in the Hague, Holland, definitely with the 75 in 1980, but we believe that was towards the end of her time with it.

Are there any collector guru's out there who know when they did appear?
