Very rare Howa 55G Co2 .22 air rifle

This is something you don't see everyday, its a .22cal 5 shot bolt action co2 repeating air rifle from Japan. I believe Howa made these in the 70s-80s but production numbers must have been low as they are very rare and I have heard rumors of them selling for $1000usd plus. This one shoots around 600fps, it has a custom carbon fiber silencer on it that I built myself to make it more back yard friendly as they are pretty noisy! They have a cool flow through probe which was years ahead of anyone else, a back to back dual cartridge system which pierces both at the same time and a 5 shot tube type mag which is accessed through the rear of the breech.
