    I have 2 I consider rare
    SCR No8 1 of only 3 rifles Made by Dave Brayford Staffordshire Custom Rifles.
    2 were made in 177 & the one I have is .22. not the prettiest rifle you'll ever see, but one of the most consistent!

    Air Arms Tactical Hunter .22 not rare really over 200 made but! I waited 5 years to get one! & I can honestly say it's a truly amazing Rifle! better then my Daystate MK3 yep better then a MK3 by a long way IMHO & that says a lot to meD

    Webley Service PCP, the only one ever made by John Walker of Hull.
    Webley Service with Custom made Gas Ram, (not commissioned by me).
    Webley Senior Co2, one of ten made by John Walker.
    Webley Tempest in .25, one of three made at the factory.
    Webley Junior No:1 (Batch number)
    Webley Double Spring Clip Mk.1, Boxed.
    BSA Centenary .22 No:2, boxed mint, first one ever sold.

    That'll do for now.
    I don't go looking for rarities in particular, but still manage to find a few.

    H. THE "LINCOLN" AIR RIFLE. PATENT 876/04. nO 22944 L.

    100 years old, I think. The 'L' either stands for 'light', or 'ladies'.

    Offers, anyone?

    No bluing, fires a treat!
    no such words as alot or ect, and do you really want to add a second 'o' in 'lose', unless you're talking about something that isn't very tight?

    Not rare in itself but its fabled once to have been touched by I.J. up at Rivi Rifles.

    Hi All & Thanks for the input But, I consider Bsa Mod D,s and Lincoln Jeffries, Bsa light models, Gem,s ( Even though I have one stamped No 2 ) rare, and a Number of others mentioned ! The " One off " makes are rarer but not necessarily more collectible, I Appreciate the input from the guy,s but an Airsporter Stutzen, or a Rb2 ( Nice as they are ) are not rare ! I have 2 of Richard Chainey,s guns ( Bought off this forum ) No,s 3 & 7, Etc, These I would consider to be rare, IE less than 30 in total, (worth is something else) When we are dead & gone is another thing ?? Another ( Quality ) gun I would add ! "yes " every said word is debateable ? A Parker Hale Dragon, A "Quality" Item, Was it worth the effort ? Again I know, ( But i Wouldn,t sell it ) Where will this generation of Pre-Charged guns be in 100 years, ( If at all ) I was going to reply to a Thread earlier, but decided not to, It was about Synthetic piston washers in a BSF, Remember what Mr Cardew said about "Mild dieselling) The leather washers LOVE it, Ha ha, ( I do go on I when the beer is in ) And thats often !
