    need more info

    i am thinking your missing the 2 letter prefix that's in front of the numbers. other wise they are just random numbers also if you do a search on here. there is a few older posts that will tell you what you want to know or give you links to the records your looking for. i have dated all my BSA that way. and for the wisecracks that will be coming. no they where not cheap dates and no i did not blow my load after the date
    Aint no fun when the rabbits got the gun

    Hello,

    As there is no letter pre-fixing the Ser No, I presume the rifles are (Pre WWI) Lincoln Jeffries /BSA underlever air rifles which reference sources date as follows:

    15801 1907

    50603 1912

    66361 1914


    Some photos would be useful to confirm the above.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Brian

    Thanks! No there are absolutely no letter prefixes in them just "N" and then the numbers noted above.
    I'm sorry they are all early underlever ones:
    "THE B.S.A. AIR RIFLE (Improved Model.D)" is s/n 50603
    "B.S.A. AIR RIFLE." is s/n 15801 and
    "The B.S.A. AIR RIFLE (Improved model D)" 66361 :-)
