    I was fairly excited when they were announced, I had several Innova's and they were good

    I'm glad I waited after seeing all the negative comments !

    Hi all,
    I have just purchased what I think is an indonesian Innova copy from a forum member. Only just paid and its then being posted so no photos or real info yet, it has what mybe a Crosman breech and bolt but the reciever looks like no photos of Innovas that I can find its just a round cylinder at the end of the compresion tube with the trigger attached and the breech fixed on top.
    Does anyone know if the copies are like this just with a plastic cover over to give it the squared block look of the original Sharp Innova.
    Cheers,
    Johnj.

    Didn't the sharp ace have a metal breech? Maybe you have struck lucky and bought the more up market sharp!

    Yep, they certainly did. Mine had the heavier duty Kestock Conversions bolt, too. Lovely.

    Should never have sold that and the two Innovas that I've owned.

    No, definitely not an Ace.
    Would be nice if it was!
    The seller sent me a few photos but they don't show much really it'll be here in a few days and I'll try and take some clear photos by then i might have worked it out myself.
    Cheers,

    Or a Sharp Victory. If its a Victory you have to prime the trigger before you start pumping.

    Sadly, my days of 'pumping' are well gone.

    Thank you.
    It was until I swapped one of the Pan Targets for a .177 Normay Vixen.
