Simple solution.  Buy a Gamo.

Ollie Damon and Darrel's Airguns are the only ones I can find, and I've used neither. They are in/near Portland, so if you were going to ship, I am hoping to hear of other options.

I was going to say Ollie Damon also.

Try to get hold of Jim Benson who runs the air rifle club @ Tacoma Rifle & Revolver.  I bet he would know. 

Gosh, Ollie Damon has been around since I was a kid.

Good to know.  I have a leaky Sheridan Bluestreak and a Crosman 1377 that I don't have the time or inclination right now to repair.

I have the 1377 took me less than an hour to replace the seals.
Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.  Gen. 27:3

Thanks.  I am looking at maybe a flat-top piston as well for a bit of a boost.

I have one of these I got new as a kid back in the early 80's and I think I over pumped it or something because I recall it not having very much pop to it after I did and it's been sitting back in the closet ever since.  Never really thought about having it rebuilt and didn't know they could be.  Is there anything they can do to make them better??

Haven't given my old pellet gun a single thought in 30 years but after reading this thread I'll have to go dig it out and see if it can be fixed.

If you haven't already, get the Williams peep sight, after you get it rebuilt. That and a tin of predator polymags, and thsee are deadly out to 30 yards.
