Pictures sent by Paul 13/05/2021
Paul bought this mail order direct from Phoenix in 1988. It has only recently seen day light after being stuck in a draw for 33 Years.
At the time Phoenix Arms Co we’re also made blank firing revolvers, replica guns, historic and display weapons, black powder guns, air-rifles and pistols.
The G50 was modeled on the classic Government .45 AUTO. Compact, Accurate & easy to shoot. .177 Calibre 4.5mm these G50 and the variants were’s seen as a step up compared the Harrinton Gats many of us had.
Pictures sent from Jakob from Sweden. Jakob inherited this from a friend and wanted to know more about the Pistol.
It seems its very much like a Diana , or a Milbro design but doesn’t have any makers marks or logos to help us identify it. It has also been suggested its a JGA Variant. I would be guessing its a Belgium or Swedish copy. Nonetheless its a nice pistol in its own right so would be great to nail it origin.
If anyone else can help identify this please get in touch. Me and Jakob would love an update.
