Original 50T01

[jonnyone]

Hi Dave

This is the gun although i'd already removed the trigger..

The trigger assembly stripped out of the rifle..


And with the new aluminium trigger fitted


I actually got the rifle off a memeber on here, I gave him a Bonsai tree for it!! Can't remember his username though


Cheers, John

Seems like a fair exchange mate

They are handsome rifles aren't they? The replacement trigger looks an improvement over the original which is one of the very few points that are not endearing on the 50s.
I'd love to find out the total number of 50T 01 units produced.
I've got an eye to a makeover on the .177 version in the not too distant future.

I'm almost certain my 50 trigger blades are in pressed steel like most of my Originals. But you've got me wondering now...

The top one of the two in my bottom pic is .177, I swapped a King ratcatcher for it, A chap had got the mod50 for his lad but he was sruggling as the gun was way too big for him, The King Rat fitted him perfectly, The sprog used it to good effect and brought plenty of rabbits etc home for the table!!

They live in Rasaay, A remote part of Scotland so the meat was very essential to them!

This was 'Dude' struggling with the lump!!

And enjoying himself!!

It would be funny if the wee lad appears at your door when he's bigger, demanding it back.

Ha ha ha!!

I think he'll still be attached to that 2250!!

Or a .22-250. Island folk don't muck about.

If he was a future convert to the forum I would bet on it that he would
