74 jears joung, i live in Spain now but I have been arround ,England , Norway ,have traveled a lot but now i have settle down by the sea and only keep one rifle wich i have had for the last 45 jears, and its an Original mod. 50 air rifle its in very good cond. and i use it for target practice
 
Hi Lobato, I vaguely remember the Original 50's, were they long with the foregrip extending far up the barrel, a bit Lee Enfield looking.
 
I had an Original .22 model 50 when I was a teenager about 55 years ago. It was a bit underpowered so we found a spring that fitted and it was then a bit lethal. We didn't have access to any of the testing gear in those days but it would put a hole in a galvanised dustbin and a dent in the other side. It was very Lee Enfield looking.
 
I have recently taken it out for a litle field trip and it is a litle bit under power, may have to change the spring an seals but otherwise its a realy nice looking rifle, i have fitted a scope and have no problem hitting cans at 25 meters , it is a .22 and it makes a nice round hole throu ,it is the only gun i have left now.
