    Classic Guns

    It's clear that quite a few people on here have a soft spot for guns from days gone by - BSA's, Webleys etc.

    Is it practical for the BSA's of the world (for example) to manufacture a limited run of say 1000 Airsporter "S" 0.177's, sell them at an affordable price, and still make a profit? Or is the market for the classic guns so small that the whole thing would be doomed to failure?

    Just wondering.

    They would never do that, the margin would be too tiny.

    Best spring rifle they ever made was the BSA SuperStar, there is a s/h one in May's of London for a reasonable price if you are interested.
