Title: Shinbisha air rifle corp.
Post by: phishisgroovin on December 02, 2009, 09:05:02 PM
Anyone ever heard of Shinbisha air rifle corporation?

I have a .22 rifle made by them, i have had it around a year and can only find a handful of them on the internet.
Fun little rifle, might be selling it too.
Single shot, shoots LR, S, Long rounds.

I had it when i went camping last memorial day at colockum, dang we musta shot only 100 rounds but i was surprized at the accuracy, it was like shooting my pistol as its so light lol!

A real simple little rifle also.
Bullet ejection is manual, i have to roll the rifle over for it to fall from the action but its loads of fun. Has a micro groove rifling with a chrome bright shiny bore. these were made in the late late 60's to mid 70's

this one is a mod AR-10, any of the older than me folks here remember these for sale in stores? I am interested in more history on these little beauties.

I might even trade it some day for a surplus rifle too, who knows. I was giving it to my Grand daughter, but i think i am going to get her a pink cricket instead.

Unless you absolutely have to sell it, I'd hang on to it.  It can be a good conversation piece, or something to pass down.  Kinda reminds me of the old Daisy .22's.  Don't think that you'll get much for it.  You could try auctioning it on gunbrokers or a similar site... maybe, a collector may be interested.  Good luck.
