Mixed lot of old airguns available

[Black Hawk]

I friend of mine asked me about some airguns he has inherited. Knowing nothing about them he brought them to me for advice. They have been in a garage wrapped in a blanket for @ 10yrs so some surface rust. I have photographed them & looked them up in my old Hillers but am way out of touch on such items. Any advice appreciated (he just wants rid of them)

BSA Airsporter Mk1 - serial no. G26190 (1948-1954?) (works fine & tap holds cylinder pressure)

Diana Model 27 - (1910-1930s?) Marked LUFT GEWEHR

BSA Standard - Serial No. T4745 (1938?) - adjustable trigger

Unmarked gun similar to the BSA Standard but no stock stamp - presumably a Lincoln Jeffries?

Webley Service Mk II - 5 patents etched on cylinder (1938?)

I have told him that collectors would like to own these rather than be scrapped so he asked me to put them on here to see if any interest.

I apologise if I am posting in the wrong section

Without seeing them it's impossible to know what state they're in, but here's a stab:

BSA Airsporter Mk1 - serial no. G26190 (1948-1954?) (works fine & tap holds cylinder pressure) - £150

Diana Model 27 - (1910-1930s?) Marked LUFT GEWEHR - No idea

BSA Standard - Serial No. T4745 (1938?) - adjustable trigger - £150

Unmarked gun similar to the BSA Standard but no stock stamp - presumably a Lincoln Jeffries? - depends on what it is, but £125

Webley Service Mk II - 5 patents etched on cylinder (1938?) - £300

lf you can put some photos up then it will help members to give a better value of these, but the above values are a decent guide.

Hi, thanks for the replies.

Values are about what I thought but I haven't kept up to date.

All are in shootable condition I THINK, haven't tried them (except the Airsporter), Webley needs a breech seal.

No signs of bluing on any.

How do I attach a pic on here?

Hi, you have to use a free hosting site like photobucket / flikr etc., and then paste a link into you post, like this;

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I don't use any third party sites & have just tried to use this sites instructions to upload & finding no joy.

If anyone is vaguely interested if they contact me I can send photo's.

Real pity if he scraps them!

The rifle similar to the BSA Standard may be an earlier BSA, with cylinder etching missing and no initials in the stock.

Diana 27s are not worth a great deal, unfortunately. Maybe £70 or £80 if in good nick?

I think Paddy's in the right ballpark, although as he says, without an accurate idea of condition it's impossible to know.

Without any original blueing they are likely to be worth less, of course, and especially if the rust has bitten into the metal. If your friend plans to sell them as a job lot, he can expect a further hefty reduction in price as not many people will want to buy so many rifles at once.

If you email me pics, I will host them for you.
