Guys and gals, I am desperately searching for old/new and never used Sporasub Dessault rubber guns which were made in the late '80s in the Marseille factory. The particluar model (made in about 12 sizes) had black aluminium barrel, white handgrip (with see-through plastic at top so you could see trigger mechanism workings), red rubbers and French flag decal about halfway along the barrel. I am interested in any size gun in any state and will pay good money. Thank you.
 
I used them for seven years and loved, until they were outdated by guns with thicker 28 mm barrels. Beware that they had a problem with the trigger design, particularly if one used very strong bands. The sear pin was held in plastic seats. With use, those seats walls would give inand the sear would not latch the shaft anylonger.

The one with the clear panel was sold in the last versions.
 
Yes, they did have their problems but I have a sudden nostalgic urge to have them back as they were among the first, and certainly the best, guns I ever used. My last one was stolen in Valencia airport years ago :waterwork. I am sure somewhere in Marseille there must lurk some new or old guns......
 
I wish I had kept mine. I still had the airguns I used until I switched to H.Dessault rubber guns in 1981. But I lost track of them along the years
