Gamo Paratrooper

[Dornfelderliebe]

Have .177 Paratrooper with tube mag since around mid 70's got in from £10 add in local rag,( those were the days) metal frame stock with plastic . Found pellet sensitive, jam or cuts bits off if pellets too tall for "sliding gate" feed transfer pellets from tube to breech. Imagine with Wear efficiency would drop as relies on metal to metal to seal cylinder to barrel. shot quite well,though bit clunky, never chrono'd, never had it apart, few drops oil on moving parts Occasionally

I noticed this. The gun likes shorter pellets. Mine cycled old school Milbro caledonians but had jams with Marksmans. Someone on here has suggested using ball ammo.

Metal to metals not so bad aslong as it's well lubricated and not some random Pot metal.
I think what I've currently got bar the pest controls should be alright but .177 isn't so bad to get a good amount of so a different tins no problem and can be factored into the budget (which I still need to figure out), don't think I'll have much luck in a local rags though as they stopped printing the ones round here.
