I picked up a pellet rifle at a local pawn shop last night. It looks to be near new, not a mark on it and that is the problem. I removed the stock and can find no marks, numbers or anything on it that will tell me who made it or where it was made. It is a .177 caliber, barrel cocking rifle. The barrel is 20 inches long with 7 grove rifling. No dove tail groves for scope mounting just the iron sights on the barrel. With K&N pellets it gives 821 fps. and is very accurate. The trigger breaks at 3.22 lbs. with no creep.
Now for the part that stumps me the most, there is no safety of any kind, no marks that there ever was one on this rifle. The price tag said $35.00 but after a little dickering I walked out with the rifle and my wallet was $20.00 lighter. Anyone got any idea who would make a rifle without any marks, numbers on it? With NO safety? Why make a rifle with no identifying marks? Lawdog
