bsa standard and merlin valuation

[grezoor]

hi all i have been offered the chance of both of the above,the standard has a cs prefix serial no some original bluing and the etching is also visible (just in the right light)the stock is also in tip top condition,the icing on the cake is the fore sight protector
the merlin is a mk1 also in top condition with a very nice stock both guns are in .177, i know pics are useful and may be available when i get my camera back,many thanks in advance Graham

My valuation unseen would be

BSA Club Standard .177 - Club No.1 (45.5") = £ 150-£185 or Club No.4(43.5") = £150-£170 Foresight protector in good condition - add £60

BSA Merlin - £140-£180 depending on condition. The Mk 1(nylon transporter) is rarer than the Mk2( alloy transporter, separate rearsight) ; however they are both pretty uncommon guns. Some collectors might pay as much as £230 for one if they wanted it badly enough.

Hope that helps
