    They breed!

    It wasn't that long ago that I sold all my airguns down to just the Webley Omega. "I can only shoot one at a time, so what do I want with all these airguns?" I reasoned with myself.

    Having been shifting things out of the spare room (aka the gun room, aka the office aka Steve's den of iniquity etc etc) prior to decorating, I counted the following:

    A BSA Meteor Cadet
    A Boxed BSA Meteor
    A Geco (aka Diana) mod 5 tin plate rifle.
    A BSA Cadet Major
    A HW30s
    A BSA Mercury
    A Baikal Airgun
    A BSA Light Pattern
    A GEM (nor working thanks to the kindness of DCL_Dave)
    A Webley MK1 pistol
    A Boxed Webley Junior MK2 pistol
    A Boxed Crossman 1322 pistol with stock
    A BSA Scorpion Pistol in need of attention.
    A Webley Premier
    A Webley Tempest
    A BSA 240 Magnum
    A Manuarm Pistol
    A Daisy BB Pistol
    A Topscore BB pistol

    ....and the mighty GAT.

    I honestly can't remember buying all that lot so I can only conclude that they're breeding when the lights go off at night.

    It's just the tip of the iceberg mate. Those are just the airgun items. I think I may suffer from some sort of Magpie syndrome. I also seem to have accumulated quite a lot of old brass tools and other shiny metal objects. I'm struggling to think what I wanted with an old Rolls Razor, but I must have bought the bugger at some point.

    Pah, mostly pistols. They dont count and can be used as 'paperweights'.

    BTW is your 30S a .177 or .22?

    I would go and look, but I would have to demolish the intricate stack I put them into earlier. Sort of like a double BSA piled arms logo.
