RARE *WORKING* Vintage Schimel P22 Pellet Pistol .22 in good cosmetic condition and perfect operating condition, with complete operating manual (see pic -- written by Karl P., who is the leading expert on these pistols and has written four books on the Schimel) AND is included on a data CD (not shown in pics) along with a lot of other useful information, reviews, diagrams, tips, etc. about the Schimel – how’s that for service?! **As a bonus, I am also including twenty 8-gm CO2 cartridges and an extra end cap o-ring (they are common Buna-N 70 size 114 o-rings) with each pistol.** This one was professionally resealed (all 6 seals) circa 2017 by Karl P. This listing is serial number 3173X and these were produced in North Hollywood, CA between 1948-1954 by the Schimel company. I am selling this one and two others because I do not shoot this rare pistol regularly so it needs a new home! I see some “interesting” E-bay listings for this pistol that have absolutely no information as to the functionality of the pistol yet are listed as “used” rather than “for parts only”. I cannot post a video file in an AGW listing (only pics) but if necessary can provide you with a short video that demonstrates this actual listed pistol is in working condition – each listing has its own video (I can only list one (otherwise I would include several) of the actual pistol in the listing. You won’t find any modern replica CO2 pistol with this amount of power, accuracy, and range – this one is loud and has a nice kick that turns heads. This American pistol has a unique and interesting story (the entire story is included on the data CD). It is an iconic long-out-of-production model so it is becoming more valuable and certainly an Americana collector’s item. Additional features include: OAL 9.3 inches, black fixed front sight, rear adjustable sight windage, plastic grips, manual safety, black epoxy finish, and weighs 2.5lbs. This is a single-shot model so it must be loaded for each shot. You will probably get up to 15 good shots from a single 8gm cartridge and that’s what’s expected. This Schimel DOES have “masking tape shims” on the bottom of the end cap as the piercing pin is properly “tuned” as long as you use “Mr. Fizz” CO2 cartridges, as other brands may vary slightly in length which can effect proper piercing. One of the other two listings has “masking tape shims” (and one does not) to accommodate the Mr. Fizz cartridges and they are there for a reason as stated in the included instructions manual by Karl P. Mr. Fizz 8gm cartridges are readily available on E-bay and from other sources.
**This one probably has the least best overall finish and paint of the three listings.** Obviously, none of these listings are in “mint” condition as the pistols have been used so please review pics as you are the judge! Each of these listings has what I believe to be the original finish (or what remains of it) after 70-76 years! If you are seeking this pistol as a collector you already know it’s hard enough to find a nice one much less one that actually functions properly.
If you are looking at this one you probably know what you’re looking at and if not already aware, please realize that this is not a novice airgun and has a learning curve. Further, it was not made of the best materials (which was a shame) so these pistols are known to be fragile. IF NOT OPERATED PROPERLY, THEY WILL BREAK AND THIS IS A KNOWN FACT REGARDING THIS PISTOL! Please be aware that if you purchase this pistol and become the new owner, it’s important to understand how this pistol functions though once you get used to operating it becomes second hand. However, I am including mostly everything you need to know about operating this pistol in a written manual (which is also on the data CD). THIS PISTOL CURRENTLY FUNCTIONS PROPERLY AS IT SHOULD. It is recommended that the ammo is .22 lead balls but I have used Crosman CP dome 14.3gr pellets with no issues or jamming – I cannot recommend any other pellets as I have not experimented. Bottom line…I implore you to read the operating instructions thoroughly and familiarize yourself with its operation BEFORE trying to operate this wonderful CO2 pistol. Most people would look at these pistols as a rare collector’s investment and the redeeming quality of purchasing a Schimel is that even if it does break, it’s still valuable as a collector’s item either as a conversation piece or if sold for parts.
This pistol is in perfect operating condition and it just needs a new home that will give it more use than I give it. A nice addition to your pistol collection and fun to shoot indoors or outdoors. The pistol is in fair to good cosmetic condition for its age -- all my pistols listed (unless specified otherwise) are clean and in perfect working condition.
