Description
Here on offer is a very high quality Smith & Wesson 78G CO2 powered single action all metal air pistol in .22 caliber, serial number Q019756, a rare early adjustable trigger example with its original factory box, owner's manual, genuine S&W pellet tin with a partial load of pellets, and a 5 pack of genuine blue S&W CO2 cartridges. It holds gas for extended periods without leaking down, over 2 months and counting, afterI replaced all of the "O" rings with high quality polyurethane ones and installed my new HOT valve stem poppet that yields an incremental increase in power in place of the clunky original one. The gun should be good for years of trouble free shooting. I fired a 5 shot string through the gun across my chronometer with these results:
average 410fps, high was 412fps, low was 407fps, a good result for a .22 pistol using 14.3 grain pellets.
T
hese are highly sought after
S&W air pistols with total metal frame and sights, the only non-metal parts are the medium brown
grips
. These are very close replicas of the popular Smith & Wesson 41 automatic target pistol since they were designed by S&W to give the owners of those firearms an alternative to practicing with live ammunition, saving a lot of cost. The weight and balance is nearly identical to the S&W 41 firearm. It has great balance and is a functional classic gun, great for target shooting and
plinking
. I fired the gun with a new gas cartridge and it shoots strongly using premium .22 pellets.
The CO2 cartridge used to test the gun will still be in it when you receive it. Check the pictures for t
he cosmetic condition, they best describe the gun. The pictures are of the gun you will receive and are representative of its condition.
