SAXBY PALMER ENSIGN ELITE 22 cal. Pellet Rifle "Scarce" This gun is in near new condition. I have had it my collection of many years. It comes with the pumping tool and 6 metal cartridges with the original cartridge box. There is a scratch on the receiver With normal handling marks. Please look at the pictures and call with your Questions. This is one of the coolest vintage air rifles ever made. .22 caliber 800, feet per second, recoiless, precharged cartridges. The Ensign was imported into the U.S. by Marksman for a short time in the 1990s. The Brits were the ones who came up with the Saxby-Palmer Ensign. It's a bolt-action rifle that loads a huge metal cartridge that contains both the air and a .22 caliber pellet. Each reusable cartridge is about the size of a 12-gauge shotgun shell or larger. It fires like a centerfire cartridge, with the firing pin pushing on a central valve pin that runs almost the entire length of the air cartridge. When the pin moves, it opens the air reservoir inside the cartridge, allowing the compressed air to escape behind a pellet that's loaded in the nose. Please look at the pictures and if you have any questions please call, text, or email me. My quickest response will be by calling me and if I don't answer please leave a detailed message.
