    i was a bit curious as to the ratio of .177 to .22 that were produced ,i very roughly
    judged that for every 4/5 .22s i came across there would be a .177 ,ive got nearly 5 and
    by chance my next was a .177 ; gggr has approx the same .its a shame but its unlikely anyone would have a record of this would they?

    I don't know if John Knibbs has any records for the Scorpion Air Pistol, or if BSA themselves have any, but I was told the ratio of Webley .22/.177 air guns sold around that time was approximately 5 to 1, and was the same up to fairly recent times.
