My old schoolmate i shot with had an Original 45 and his dad had the 50. When i started working, i had a webley vulcan and a sharp innova. I went to part exchange the sharp for an Original 45. Hardys of Sheffield my local gun shop didn't have a 45 but did have there first delivery of HW 80's and i suppose that was that for the Original.

I got my first air rifle late 60's direct from the Motherwell Milbro factory, courtesy of a great uncle who I never met. He sent my Dad home with 2 Diana's a couple of sets of brass darts and a sugar bag full of .177 pellets. Thats an awful lot of pellets.

Brilliant video as always. Very informative.  My first air rifle was a milbro G23. Bought it off a mate a school for £2. Ive also got a sport aid, although it could do with a bit of a Doz up cosmeticly.

do you sell airguns

I hope this question doesn’t make you laugh - do you have Diana/Milbro model 22/220 I think it was called? It was a Scottish-made 177 stamped affair with a rifled brass barrel inside the stamped barrel profile. I had one back in the mid-60s and had loads of enjoyment with it. The local rat population hated it. Cheers, Peter J/
