Can you tell me about WW1 era BSA air rifles?

Thanks Lakey, appreciated once again. I will look out for the book.

Finally, you mention:

If you want a No.1 Bore "full powered" Improved model D. The one you want would be an Standard Ordinary Pattern 43.5" Straight hand Stock model with a serial number between 65000 and 80000. these serial numbers are only approximate, however within these ranges you would be 98% sure of getting a rifle produced during the 1914 to 1918 period.

Was the pistol stock not a standard feature (option?) then?

Don't have one for sale do you?!!!

[Lakey]

Felix,

You could have a choice - Pistol Grip stock or Straight hand (which was cheaper) I believe there are more pistol Grip stocks around than straight hand but I could be wrong?

As for one for sale? I don't at the moment but I will let you know if I locate an example of what you are looking for.
All the best

You're a gentleman. Just afraid by starting this topic and judging by some replies I might be competing with a few others now...

Lakey, you have pm.

Felix,

They made 80,000 of them, I am sure there should be enough to go around.

Your requirements are a little more detailed than most I would guess, but I will keep my eye's peeled.
