GAMO ASI Sniper .177

[_tim_]

I've owned my GAMO ASI Sniper .177 since I was about 13-14 I reckon. I'm 44 this year! I've a couple of questions.

1. Is this likely to be too powerful for the current law.

2. Is it worth anything?

It shoots really nicely, and with good accuracy, and apart from a few scuffs on the woodwork, mostly where it's been rested on things, is in very good condition.

Too powerful???!!! I don't think there's much danger of you being accused of having a WMD in your hands.
If in really nice condition the rifle could be worth £40. Maybe even £50
I remember these being sold as a kit called the Rangemaster, supplied with targets, pellets and a scope in the Marshal Ward catalogue in the late 1970s.
Is it a repeater, or a single shot? If a repeater, add about £10-£20 to the above value.

ASI Sniper http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Airs...ml?sort=6&o=31 inthis case a repeater a.k.a. ElGamo Expo and the repeater as ElGamo Expomatic.
I agree with the above valuations.

I think the valuation is about right provided in reasonable good condition. I have quite a few ASI rifles (paratroopers and Apache) and my first ever rifle was a sniper repeater that I had given to me,sadly it died many years ago.
