VINCENT

Metal pump lever handle under barrel. Designed to be pumped to high pressure with seventy strokes. Would shoot many times with one fill, but with diminishing power unless pumped about thirty strokes between shots. Original instructions warned to use only "automobile brake fluid" to lubricate pump. Walnut stocks are handcrafted and metal parts are painted black. Mfg. circa 1930s.
Dennis Quackenbush (see the "Q" section of this guide) has recently manufactured some working replicas of the Vincent airguns.
Previously manufactured by Frank Vincent, located in Hillsdale, MI.
