    Very useful guide Jimmie.

    My deluxe model does around 190 and is accurate up to 10 yards.
    I had a Standard that was a bit more powerful but not accurate!

    Adjustable sights on the deluxe make a big difference.

    I will look out for more of these little gems as I have a friend who likes repairing unusual air guns and is happy to make poly seals.

    Not sure about this oval one but bet he will give it a go.

    I found a deluxe model just the other day but the seller priced it at £200. Seems high to me. Unboxed example.

    Polyurethrane seals? That would be nice. My Record Champion has a rubber seal of sorts. Still oval but black rubber.

    All the best,
    Jimmie

    I paid £70 for mine 2 years ago.No box.
    Standard in box was around the same.

    Both from Traders at Bisley.

    Square piston. That really would be strange. I suspect the corners would fail very quickly though.
