Max, the Victor in the pic I bought new in about 1982 + 0r - a year or so. It has a 5.5" bbl. If I recall it's a 106 series gun. It's a really great target pistol. It was on par with a S&W 41 at the time. A little different feel to the grip. I have heard on the internet that hi-velocity ammo might crack the frame, especially on older guns with weaker springs. I use CCI std vel in all of my High Standards. Go to rimfire central.com for lots of info.
