    scalemead and sussex arms

    hi all. i know this is a big ask, but does anyone have any copies of the scalemead arms or sussex arms company catalogues from the early eighties. I figured if anybody would know where i could find one it would be in this section.

    I sold a 'Sussex Armoury' 1981 catalogue on here some time back. I didn't scan it, but I might have made a photocopy before I sold it. I will have a look amongst my papers if that would be of use to you.
    I collect vintage Japanese air rifles & vintage Japanese pellets
    Information sought about antique firearms with Japanese markings, do you have one ?

    I have Sussex Armoury catalogues as follows:
    10th Anniversary 1978/79 (it unfolds as opposed to being stitched)
    1980 (this also unfolds etc)
    1981 (stitched) also
    Military Division, A5 size mono, 1979/80 and January 1980 (no airguns, all militaria).

    Scalemead Arms Company cat no.6 1989

    I also have the capability to scan them (in colour of course). Email me and let me know what you are looking for and I will see if I can help.

    If there is enough interest here I could consider making a repro one(?) or a composite relating to air guns(?).

    I look at those catalogue pages now and I'm shocked at how cheap the prices were. However, I remember looking at them at the time and thinking how expensive the guns were. Except for the Panther pistols; I saved up my money one year and bought one when we went on holiday. It was rubbish!
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.
