For Sale: A scarce 'Target' model with factory fitted No 8 sight. The stock has been cut away to accommodate the sight and the sight folds neatly into the stock recess when not in use. 6 hole PH iris fitted and this matches the thin 'globe' style bead within the rifle's BSA No 19 shaded foresight. The No 19 also had a small ring element but this was corroded when I bought the rifle and sheared off during a shooting session, much to my frustration. The globe foresight is thin enough for you to choose which part of a 3/8 inch bell aperture you want to place a pellet - it really is that accurate. The rifle is also fitted with a BSA No 21a aperture sight, which has been mounted backwards on a shelf behind the trigger block - a non factory but contemporary modification. Not sure why somebody added the No 21a, as I have never even bothered to zero it, on the basis the No 8 is so accurate. I originally bought this rifle as a duplicate (I already had a similar model some 700 digits younger) to use as an 'all weather' gun but as you can imagine, I have never taken this BSA out in the rain and now need the space in the gun cabinet for a new acquisition. £325 f2f preferred but can post at buyers expense and risk. Paypal accepted net of fees or as a gift.
