What I picked up at the "spoon show" today...

I already have 4 of these airguns, but this one is in far better condition than my others and it was $25, so I couldn't pass it up!




I have the 8gram CO2 cartridges and BB's for it and I loaded it up and took it out to the backyard for some practice. It shot 5 time, then refused to fire, so I'll have to take it apart and see what's going on. I have 4 others, so I have spare parts. I'd like to build a few good working bb guns out of these 5, they are fun to plink with!

Interesting pistol. Who makes it? Don't believe that I have run across one like that before. I like them also. I have a .17 barrel cocking air pistol and a .17 cal air rifle w/scope. They are great fun at very little operating/shooting costs.

Healthways was a LA company and they made this particular air pistol from the early 60's to the mid seventies. This is the older model as it's a little different than the others I have. I may sent all 5 to a guy who replaces all of the o-rings, checks them all out and gets them working. Out of 5, I should get 3-4 good shooting air guns. They are fun to target shoot with in the basement in the cold MI winters.
