Just found a May 2000 air gunner mag and there's a RWS advert stating "The All New Rapier" So I reckon not many months before this the Rapier came out.
Price wise. Have seen several advertised recently ranging from £300 to £500. Some of these are fac, although I think £500 is a bit steep, unless the rifle is fitted with a good quality scope. Seems like the average price is between £350 to £425.

I think Nick has nailed the dating side (I understand the FX / RWS link-up was owing to a . business failure, or hick-up, leaving FX with a lot of unsold stock - although not actually 'stocks' )
A very elegant gun is the Rapier, and the 2-shot sliding mag system works very well. It should have a Turkish Red Walnut stock (V rare!).
I paid £280.00 for my Excalibre ten years ago.
