i paid more than i would have liked but it's such a nice old rifle

there's hardly any blueing left but it has a two-stage trigger and is drilled/tapped for a scope rail

the serial number is earlier than Mr Hillers in his enlarged third edition of the collectors guide to air rifles

the serial is 3790, this rifle seems to have way more power in the mainspring than my later model mk3 (also .177 cal!)

it also has the multiple fluted stock.

i'll get some pics up later

all in all, a good day at the booitsales

btw, now i'm wondering whether to have it polished and re-blued
