    Question Looking for some info

    Hello!

    I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on an air-rifle that's just come into my possession after clearing my grandfathers loft!
    I think its a ASI Paratrooper after doing some lookups on google but can't find much about it?

    Thanks

    Thanks

    It was a self loading break barrel! If you have the self loading tube on the top. Flat heads recommended, would make a decent enough close range rating gun!
