is it the short barreled "combat" model ?
They are worth a bit more, esp if it has the mag...

Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
I have a few of these
Check the barrel hasn't been shortened - also that it is the correct barrel to that model, the air arms and Sussex armoury barrels are interchangeable but some are not compatible with each other.........correctly operating ratchet is important as well as ensuring the spring has not been replaced with an overpowered one which can damage the entire action. clean undamaged cocking slot is another small point that adds value.
Pictures are a must really but guide prices:
poor condition - under £100
really good condition - £200
really good with functioning autoloader - over £300

Thanks for that link Mr Gen....I do not think that I have ever seen the short barreled version! Also £300 for one with a working autoloader! Wow I wish I had chosen that back in the day. Alas mine seems to be a standard Hi Power with magazine and barrel weight. It has poured down here all day so no chance of a decent pic yet
Hi Karl
I've a short one that I bought off here in bits! Didn't come with a mainspring but did come with a Theoben gasram! (Had to use a sash clamp to get it together!! )
I paid the princely sum of £50 for the little one but various bits were missing (Trigger adjustor, spring etc)..
Also have an older Sussex Armouries one too (Swapped an electric motor for it!! )

JohnBaz....amazing to think that these things are still popular enough to fit a gas strut into one! I had my first Jackal at 13 and loved it because it looked like an SLR! Then joined up and got my own SLR!
It seems a shame to shove this thing into the attic....mother nature has conspired to rain the minute I have a free moment to take a pic, maybe she is telling me something?
