Hämmerli 'Puma M494' sidelever
The owner of this rifle (from Suffolk, UK) says:
It's a Hämmerli Model 1 Puma M494. These were imported in .177 cal. .22 cal were a special order such as this one. This was the first of the breed that led to 401, then Sussex Armoury Jackal and eventually the birth of Air Arms.
I found this list on the internet (so 'handle with care'!):
-Puma M494 (M1) fixed sights
-Puma M495 (M2) adj. sporter rear sight and tunnel front sight
-Puma M496 (M3) As model 494 but with under barrel weight
-Puma M490 (M4) as model 495 but with under barrel weight
-Puma M497 (M10) micro adj. rear aperture sight and adj. buttpad.
