    Hello Mark,

    You have a great air rifle there and one of the most desirable early Bsa's.
    These were the first volume produced rifled examples, of what was then a new airgun calibre - .22 - Generally everything was .177 or .25 before this.
    Had the Germans invaded, I reckon it would have been a very unlucky Jerry that got shot with that !

    Best Regards Morgan

    Anyone got any thoughts on the merits of .22 vs .177 on rifles of this era (power/accuracy/characteristics/pellet drop etc)? I have little experience in this area...
