hi lawrie, thats looks awesome.
Here is an unusual airgun a (Paul air shotgun) which I would think not many people have had the pleasure of handling, I have just finished resealing it for a friend. As you can see the valve is quite crude but it is very efficient, (looks like it could have been designed by a plumber). As you can see it has a large reservoir and I put about 40 pumps into it which produced 5 shots. Many thanks to Garvin for help with the pictures.

That is an interesting looking valve Lawrie.I've never handled a Paul-I suspect very few of them left the States.In fact,"off-shore Pauls "are probably the result of international trades.You certainly seem to be restoring some beauts!Trev
150 pumps for 10 shots??????? Unless you shot a cow, you'd burn more calories loading it than you would gain from the hunt.
how many larger vouchers ?£££££££££££££££
There were skeet air shotguns for sale here in UK
Back in the 80s.
Can't remember who made them but I wanted one badly
What a beaut I like interesting stuff
You aren't kidding, that valve looks like something I replaced in the toilet cistern of my old flat. The one I replaced, not the new one.
Its certainly unusual, I had only heard of the 'Setter' air shotgun and the Crosman air shotgun, that plumber's mate looks far more businesslike. Is it FAC? With a single slug it would be over 12 fpe I guess.
We'll see if a link to AVA forum works over here, if it does, then here is the catalog published for the Paul shot gun. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/Amer...uns-t8235.html
Interesting advertisement for it. Says 1 good compression will give 1-5 shots.
