Yes I agree, probably too costly to produce big numbers, bet it would sell well today.

yes I agree, with the intrest in the tactical look I allways lovded my old Jackals but they are not pc these days Now my Brocock Enigma Carbine is a delight, and one of my real faves.

Hi i have recencly acquired a black major in a poor condition i made a shoulder stock by guessing the measurments from a picture, as you say rather a rare item ,but quite a few are owned by members on here,would be nice to see some nice pictures. the original shoulder stock is made of alloy but mine i had to make from steel which gives a good increase in weight.Also it was lacking a front sight so am putting on a red dot and a moderator, after it is blued and painted,will put on better pictures soon Major is the lower in the picture with the black plastics Regards SPROAT

I recently acquired one in fairly decent condition, but minus its shoulder stock. Fun and interesting as a pistol, though the silly reflex sight is about as much use as a a red dot without a battery! Mine does not have a sight rail, so its a curio really. Do other owners have scope rails cut into the receiver top?

I have no idea how many were made. It was Milbro's last gasp, and some of their last efforts were not bad. The latest version of the G80 is not a bad little rifle, it is as well or better made than most of the juniour rifles produced by competitors at the time.

I have not run my BM over a chrony but I m, told they can produce some power, though the triggers leave a bit to be desied (mines not bad, but the one on the Cougar I own, I suspect the same, is awful).

If anyone has a spare shoulder stock for sale, do please let me know.....

Hi my black major HAS a sight rail, but all the pictures of others i have seen don"t appear to have one,do you have any pictures of other majors showing sight rails or not,be nice to clarify the point. SPROAT

Mine def didn't have scope rail, otherwise I would have used it.
