Retired Mod & Airgun Anorak Extraordinaire
Only trying to help here so please don't shoot the messenger, but having owned a couple of complete BSA Centenary Airsporter kits over the years, unfortunately, I have to tell you that despite the scope in your pictures being a BSA, it is most definitely not one of the scopes originally included with the Centenary package, as the scope pictured is one of their also-ran kids gun scopes, whereas the scope it would have come with sported good quality mounts (even though single clamping), and was a x32 or x40 optic, not a x20.

Gareth is quite right. The kit scope was a glossy tubed 4x40.
But to be fair to Hookerball, he didn't say it was the original scope - just a crappy BSA period scope

Not many out there that are most definitely for shooting. Non of the usual extras either.
They are an Airsporter, they point beautifully, this example looks lovely, and a .22 which is just right for farmyard shooting. Someone is going to get a lovely rifle.
No idea of the value, but I've had a BNMIB and quite envious that someone going to get one to shoot. Good luck with the sale.
Someone was selling the "right" for an Airsporter Apel mount, though at an eye watering price. That and a 6x40 fixed scope would better the Weaver 4x40 that came with the original promotion.
Certainly an interesting and fun rifle to have.
