    Thumbs up mystery rifle..

    hi all, a friend of mine had this rifle away back in the
    mid 60`s early 70`s he said it was a break barrel type,
    once you broke the barrel so to speak, you then put
    your hand to the end of the barrel and turned a threaded
    part on the end and brought out a tube and loaded a
    pellet in the end of tube, then placed tube back in end
    of barrel and tightened the threaded part up and bob`s
    your uncle, ready to fire gun.. can anyone shed some
    light as to what make of rifle it could be ?
    awaiting with great anticipation.. thankyou.. kind rgds..

    Sounds like a Diana Mod 1, maybe. Was it a small, "tin-plate" type gun?
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    Haenel Model 15. The Diana Model 1 was loaded in a similar manner but only fired darts and balls.
