    Didnt the early ones without the fore end have an adjustable trigger?
    The later ones had the hole for the screwdriver blanked out,they looked sleek but heavy trigger

    The Repeater in the Video definately looks like it does, I'm cursed with Gorilla grip so I likely won't notice if one is a bit stiff but will probably feel if its set overly sensitive.

    Have to ask; did any other rifles use that tube mag system ??

    An old school mate of mine had a rifle with the tube on top but I'm sure it didn't have a pistol grip, would have been 1975-77 ish

    That may well have been the ASI Sniper repeater, a conventional wood stocked rifle.
    I don't know of any other rifles with this layout.
    The more I think I know, the more I realise the less I know.

    That was probably the Gamo Deltamatic.

    Repeater system reminds me of the one in the Daisy 25, similar principle but uses BBs instead of pellets.

    Air Arms springers e.g Mistral, Bora and similar came with a similar 'repeater' option. Not sure about the EX88....

    Cheers, Phil
