On line searches yielded no results as to the origin, cost, vintage, etc. of this piece. The barrel is marked "BKA" with a "59" under it , in a triangle. Elsewhere is scripted "Original" and "mod 75" perpendicular to that. It's quite a handsome looking thing. .177, side crank, heavy target stock, adjustable trigger(set dangerously light at this time), scope base. Am out of town at this time so cannot supply a picture....but I figure folks in this forum will recognize this piece. Thanx for any info given.

(Made by Diana, marketed by RWS.) Check here: http://airgun-academy.pyramydair.com/blog/tag/rws-model-75/ BKA 59 is the stamp of the German Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt). From another forum: http://www.network54.com/Forum/664382/message/1291023461/Chuck,+the+BKA+59+stamp That might get you started. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Sat Jun 08, 2013 6:04 pm loogee New Member Joined: 17 Sep 2010 Posts: 6 Thank you slavia for the info.
