I have a BSA Carbine that appears to be a Shadow. However the Cylinder does not have any writing on it and it and it has no scope grooves. The serial prefix is PA and the rear sight is the later one, not "bridge" type. I would be interested on any thoughts on this?
My own thoughts are it is a factory "Bitsa" using up parts that were in stock. I know with some Bsa rifles that parts carried on and were used up in different Mks of the same model.
Just checked and even the barrel does not have Bsa on it at all?
So what I have is an unmarked carbine other than the barrel prefix
