    Sold a Centenary in .22 for £450 posted (had all the extras: scope, mounts, sling, bag, cert, oil bottle, pellets, targets and badge), so as there were roughly 750/775 made in .22, and only (again roughly) 250/225 made in .177, imo I guess you should be looking at £500 plus post for yours . If you choose to sell however, please remember to start a separate sales thread (see stickies ). Atb Gareth.

    hi mate of the 1000 made 236 were .177 764 were .22 so the rarer of the two calibres .177 would be more desirable,as value is in the eye of the beholder from my point of view i would value at £450ish for the .177 version if it was complete with all the bits and pieces and in vgc,i await to be shot down in flames by the experts atb Graham

    That is a great price ... But are you sure they are Centenary models, not just Stutzens at that price ??? If Centenaries, their serial numbers will be between 0001 & 1000. If it reads anything else, then it is something else. Reason I raise this is that this BBS collectors section has often been criticized by collectors from outside for setting values too low, that’s all . Atb: G.

    Got to agree with Graham & Gareth on this one...as a ball park figure.

    Perhaps if Bob (Airgunbob) checks his serial No's & specific models...you will find they are Stutzens...which are well worth having...but only normally half the price of a complete Centenary,but if we are wrong....you have had a couple of REAL bargains...& those "dealers" should be kicking themselves..

    Either way...they are nice Airsporters,& in my opinion along with the Mk.1&2&S...the only ones worth having.
