These dont take kindly to not being used.
Nevertheless I havent for many months.
So I took them both out of the attic for a workout.
This involves remembering the procedure for loading and firing.
Which I remembered perfectly apart from pushing the catch forward to stop the gas capsule emptying.
However after a few false starts they both worked -but as I was indoors I needed ear defenders.
Very definitely not a pistol for beginners!
But you should all have one.

Re: Schimels
I can remember these in L Wesleys book from back in the 70's an always wanted one, along with the Hahn and Crosman six shooters!!
I now have quite a few of the rifles in that book but only the Webley and Walther pistols !!
Do you have pics of your Schimmel??
Cheers, john

Re: Schimels
John, gingernut and I have had 4 of these, here is a pic of mine that is on the Schimel website.I have just the one now which I have fitted new grips to.I have spare seals for these and can repair them.They are one of the most enjoyable CO2 pistols to shoot, very accurate and sounds like shooting a .22 rimfire.

Re: Schimels
