    Probably never ever come up for sale,but god,if it did, imagine the bidding!!

    was it not a sport and was it not inlaid by Don Robinson?

    Hi All,

    For me,I reckon it would have to be an original example of the fore-runner of the BSA Millitary Pattern Air Rifle ---- namely 'The Westley Richards New Combination Air Gun and Service Rifle.

    One came up in auction a few years ago and not realising its significance I didnt put in a bid.

    So now I want one

    Probably only made a handful of these important prototypes so even more rare than hens teeth

    I was lurking up at Kibby Range as I do, and the Richard the Shop Guy asked me to set up a scope for an Elderly Gentleman (me being young at 65ish)

    I was handed what I took to be a brand new BSA Supersport,

    Having picked my eyeballs up from the ground,

    I set up the Zero Option Scope at ten metres and 25 metres (alright yards) I been Metric from age 17,

    Using Marksman Points in .22 flavour, given to me by the Gent with the comment i've ad these years,

    The BSA was as new needed oil here and there, it was zeroed in five shots
    It cocked as sweet as a nut,

    The trigger break was sure and light, I killed 2 tin chickens at 40 me..Yds
    just for fun,

    I WANT IT!

    Well I've just found mine but I'm waiting on a reply to be able to buy it, BSA Challenger, had one many years ago and regret selling it.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Mally- that would have been a mk2 as the mk1 doesn't have provision to fit a scope- unless someone has drilled and tapped the cylinder and fitted a scope rail



    John

    EDIT- forgot to say, my choice would be a Webley Service Mk2 with all three barrels, wooden case and all of the ancilliary bits (oil can, period pellets etc )
