    BSA improved mod d .25

    There is a .25 Mod D on Gun Star. I did know that they do exist but its the first I have seen.

    Though it might be rare, they are asking £1900!

    This could be correct I dont know but damn.

    This is true

    one of my first trades was, my IMD .25......for a Webley 'Senior' with two barrels. A fool and his goodies are soon separated!

    Asking it is one thing, getting it is another.

    And it triggers one of my pet hates - crap photos. Would a contrasting background and 90 degree light source be too much to ask for? Especially for that much money.

    Couldn't agree more Mick.

    I think someone was asking £2.5k on here a few months back with no takers. That rifle looked better too.

    Agreed, Mick.

    For that money, I think I'd rather have a Military Pattern to be honest.

    What about a Military Pattern in No.3 Bore.

    Now that would be a thing wouldn't it ? Bet that would be an awesome performer

    Napoleon used something similar...... Or so I have read?. Probably wasn't as good as a BSA though.

    Come to think of it....... Nothing is as good as a BSA !!
