Pioneer Romainian youth training gun .177 This one was dated 1982 and is in 95% condition. I asked them to send me a nice one. They outdid themselves.
This is a small air gun. It’s 37.25 inches long with a pull of about 13.25 inches. The barrel is 15.25 inches. The last bit is just a muzzlebrake. The gun weighs 4.25 lbs., and the cocking effort is just 10 lbs.
It has a rifled barrel. And sling swivels. And a manual safety. And sights adjustable for elevation. The breech detent is a ball bearing, and the breech seal is a standard o-ring, that I replaced with one I found at the hardware store, as the one it came with was mashed on one side.
With 7.8-grain Crosman wadcutter the rifle averaged 520 f.p.s. The range was from 486 to 545. ten shots.,
