Thats definately a Goose.....Early 90's. They continued the loop tail right up until I think late 1994 then the alloy Solutions and Supergoose models came out (That was when the loop tail Geese came to an end).

yep, around a 1990 mongoose solution, that was the last looptail made by mongoose. the serial wont help, they didnt have any info on how to decode them.
