Rob there are plenty of good BSA's out there and many will argue that 'less than optimal' is too broad a generalisation . Factory guns are always lacking something and less than optimal could apply to anything by any maker especially if you go down the road of custom tuning Springers and have only ever owned and shot with them first .
A 90's Airsporter RB2 , Lightning or Superstar or indeed Mercury are all fine guns . Custom tuning is great but ..not always a guarantee - once had me a tuned to death springer by a well known tuning shop - hardest thing to cock , underpower yet recoil seemed the same as my other same period kit .
