What is the longest spring gun ever ?

[Geezer]

If were talking long guns it should be without moderators.

Im thinking some of the vintage guns like the Lincoln Jeffries must right up there with the longest of them

I think the big BSAs are around 45.5”. The ultra-rare military pattern has an extra 2” or so of barrel.

Thats not too bad actually, I suppose thats what happens when you're looking at pics of them with no scale reference or no actual knowledge of the weapon
I always thought they were much much longer

Thanks Geezer

Cheers. .

I don’t claim expertise on those. There may be some that are longer, maybe the early ones (?), but in general they are thin things, so can look a bit longer than they actually are.

To use a firearms analogy, a Luger (thin tapering exposed barrel, some mechanism behind the grip) is about half an inch longer than a 1911 (thick blocky full-length slide, no mechanism behind the grip), but I think most people would say the Luger is shorter or the same length.

What about that one with the swing out bayonet fitted to the front? Noisan Nagant (sp?)

I had a 1974 35E had a 22" barrel the new ones are 20"

My Webley Patriot with mod needed a 52 inch gun bag to carry it around

Just measured my Original Mod. 50 - it comes in at 44.5".
Not the longest mentioned here but undeniably long in a Mauser-like way.

Just need a bayonet for it now...
