Well I know they made a butt-load of .25 caliber pistols, and other firearms. I don't know if they still make airguns or not.
Here's their address:

My phone wouldn't let me post pictures, but here is a quick view of the one I have. Are these rare or desireable?It packs one heck of a punch.
I have no interest in selling this one but I am just trying to get as much info as possible
Also I found a chinese one pump, and a Hahn Co2 bb pistol to show you guys, that I am probably going to be trying to sell. |

What used to be a standard sporter. Just search on Wischo. I'm thinking these were bought out by HW. Try the PyramydAir blog. Tom Gaylord has probably reviewed one. Nice, older shooters with leather piston seals. A few drops of pure silicone oil in through the transfer port hole (where the air comes out), left butt down for a day or two should rejuvenate it. |

Very cool. I'll check that out.
Leather seals sounds kinda cool. No need for rejuvenating tho. Fires like a champ. One of the reasons why I'm so impressed by it. Also seemed kinda weird the barrel is wrapped with done kind of fiber material and you can feel a twist even externally. |

For a while there Air Rifle Headquarters (when it was in West Virgina) offered covered barrels. I think he and others used shrink-wrap. Guess it is to keep it from rusting, etc. Glad to hear that old dog still hunts! |

Its not a thin wrap. It is probably 3/8" thick, and is a fiberous material.
Also those other pellet guns look amazing. Probably way more than I would be ever willing to spend on a pellet gun tho.  |

Yea. I just priced them out. One of those things cost more than twice what I payed for my M1 Garand... Not gonna happen. |

...I'm not sure you can call them a "pellet gun"
The one on the top is arguably the single most accurate rifle in the world today.
Your right they are ridiculously expensive...but I can dream  |
