    Old gun club photo

    Whiling away the late hours here (3 more days to go......yippee!).....and found this wonderful old photo of a gun club;

    http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb....fle%201910.jpg

    was attached to this genealogy site;

    http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...%3D63%26um%3D1


    enjoy

    P.S.......Just realised that the surname is the same as a guy who lives near me, and who is a keen shooter (powder and air)........will forward him this as I never cease to be amazed at what a small world this is!

    Could that be our very own BTDT? - (2nd from the right, back row.) I recognize the button hole.

    as with all these old photos i love trying to put a name to the visible airguns they are both obviously bsa ,one is and im guessing a bit ,a standard and the other either an improved or a std variant 3 [the one with the flanged cocking arm] but anyone pinning it down more precisely would be appreciated.
