    Well there are now only 16 hours to go before the doors open, so 16 hours and 15 minutes until the relevant revelations are posted here, yes ???

    Has anyone seen the Bear Grylls Gamo's? Wouldn't it be funny if it was a Gamo PT85 with "Gamo" scribbled out and a BSA sticker over the top. Of course they would have to write Peaky Blinders on it somewhere too, or put a flat cap on it.

    I think it HAS to be a rifle.

    But on the other hand, BSA might have gone full-retro and possibly will be producing a MOTORCYCLE made in India with the BSA badge on it. With a sidecar mounting a Lewis-gun, so you can have your own Peaky Blinders adveture.

    The Barcelona Small Arms Company have probably done just that, or rebadged a Phox...

    I remember BSA saying about thumbhole stocks in 2018 as I would liked one on my Ultra.

    Jesus tonight!

    BIG LET DOWN!

    That's like turning up at a party with a case of Eisberg wine.

    I think there is now a place, a yearning even, for a handsome, high quality spring pistol. Moreover, an opportunity to get the HW45 off the top spot after 35 years.

    But BSA bring a bullpup to an already oversubscribed section of the air rifle market.

    Aaaargh!

    I hate to say it but if what I have seen on social media is actually correct the Barcelona Small Arms Co have gone and dumped their previous stance and knocked up a dullpup.
    If the pic is correct at least it doesn't have "behind the ear" cocking but that's still no redemption in my books

    You've gotta laugh haven't you!?

    Who started the rumour it was going to be a pistol? And what in the name of all that is purple has this got to do with peaky blinders?

    They will be using the association that some of the people in peaky blinders may have worked in the BSA factory im guessing .

    And i was right that it was a bullpup (or at least the guy that wrote the post on the other forum got it right )
