Any .177 Argus owners?

[mcoulter]

Kalibrgun lists the Argus 45 as being available in .177 but I can't find any reports of them out in the field. Does anyone here have one? If so, what can you say about it?

Thanks!

Following, they are an intriguing rifle for sure, I like that they offer a non choked barrel , but can't confirm twist rate on any of the calibers. The text on anything I read could be misconstrued translation.

I emailed both AoA and Charlie from Georgia Airguns about the availability of this particular model/caliber. I'll report back here with what I learn. If I could find one of these unicorns, I'd be interested in trading my Cricket II Tactical (.22) Long for one.

Looks like all there short barrels 450mm in the .177 and .22 are choked with a 17.7" twist. The 600mm barrels in .22, .25 are the standard profile barrel no choke 17.7" twist. And the .30 600mm barrel is a polygonal no choke 29.9" twist.

No, .177, but I have a .22, Argus 45, version here.
But I do like the gun overall. I wasn't a fan of the stock, but I fixed that.
The gun is very solid, and stable at the shoulder, easy to hold on target (freehand shooting), the pellet pretty much goes where I want it to go.

I don't see a .177 version being any, overall different than the .22.

Very cool! It now looks like a Edgun stock!
