I purchased a break barrel .22 rifle from Jeans Military Memories in east Lancs just because it looked different from anything that I had seen before. They actually had several of these.

    The rifle had a long reinforcing vented "bar" on top of the barrel like one sometimes sees on a shotgun and was stamped made in West Germany (could have been east!). So this would make it pre 1989. Other than its distinctive look I don't remember much else about it, I don't think it even had a makers name on it. Not long after purchasing it I lent it a friend of a friend and eventually forgot about it. Now I would like to locate one of these just for old times sake, it was not a particularly accurate rifle as I recall.

    So, not much to go on but if anyone has seen one I'm sure you would remember it-hopefully better than I can!

    Thanks for the help.
    Dont know about the rifle but I used to love going to Jeans mm they had some awesome stuff in there must have bought at least ten guns off her in the day including my fwb sport a really early one with the plastic butplate !

    Me too Mally! That shop had a bit of everything, medals, replicas, militaria and air guns. I bought the unknown rifle this thread is about from them and a few Gamos. The strangest one being the statical.

    Where on earth would one start to look for a Norica Massimo? Did they ever see these shores. I know there was the large Norica Maxima (?) not the new one an older version that was nice...
