More power than these Benjamin and more precise. Made in 45 cal.

The market for airguns is more & more making my garage-sale pickup scuba tank compressor look like a great idea!. Guy was asking 75, I flashed 50 & he said O.K.
Gas engine needed a couple of gaskets in the carb and a good cleaning but now, it runs like new ;)
