By the looks of it the auction house selling does not do live/internet auctions, so you will need to either register an absentee bid, or book a phone to bid on the day

How very 'international jetset' of you!

£275?! + premium etc but still very cheap for that little lot.

thanks,i think the repro boxes are a nice addition if well made.

Yes, the Webley seems a bargain at that price, even after commission is factored in but the BSA looks a little expensive in comparison. If the same person bought both for the prices mentioned, the prices should cancel each other out, so to speak.

Lovely rifles and nice faux cases. On looking at the pics, I assumed the Bsa was a reblue, but considering the price it made, perhaps it was a minty original !
