BSA Fore sight hoods

[Sam99]

Hello All,

Pretty gloomy day where I am, very nice earlier on as I went for my morning run though. I need to get a life
Sunday morning joke: Anyone got any original Airsporter MKI and/or MKII fore sight hoods, please ?
Second joke: Any one got any of the clear plastic white topped tubs BSA put pellets in with new guns ?

Regards,

Sam

Hi Sam,

Quite a few people have been after the earlier BSA angular sight hoods, myself included, but they seem to be few and far between.
Someone was going to attempt fabrication, but I don't know if anything ever came of it.
I was going to post some pictures of the two types, but I can't find the earlier one at the moment, although I know it's here somewhere.

Try Chambers. OS062 (Ithink) is 'out of stock' for Airsporters.
But OS062 (I think... please check) is available for BSA Magnum 635.
Same part no. maybe same part???

John Knibbs International seem to have toyed with the idea of making these foresight hoods. If you send him an email registering an interest then he may consider making some if he thinks he can sell enough of them. Don't confuse these angular foresight hoods of the early marks of Airsporter with the rounded, anodised versions that came in during the 70s. The latter are still widely available.
