Hi, I have an example of the above air rifle in my collection and am trying to find out as much about it as possable, Its in .22 cal with a rail for a rear peep sight (which unfortunatly is missing). Its in working order but would benifit from a sympethic restoration. Does anyone have any info on this gun? maybe even an idea of value?

Milbro made air rifles after WW2, on pre-war production machinery from the Diana factory in Germany. Initially they made close copies of the German guns, but eventually the designs evolved with re-designed stocks, triggers, sights, etc.

The G46 is one of these guns. I believe the basic architecture of it is inherited from the Diana model 27. I believe the G46 was made in the 1970's and was intended as a beginner's target rifle. IMHO it is one of the nicer Milbro products.

Dennis Hiller's book "The Collector's Guide to Air Rifles" has a lot of good information on the Milbro guns, including some parts diagrams, etc.
