I have just got hold of another BSA Scorpion pistol in poor condition.

My first one i bought new in 1984 and I love it.

Yes its heavy ish but it is powerful and accurate.

Now there is confusion on mk1 and mk2

my first one is PA mk1 but has rails and 2 holes for rear sight mk2

Parts being put together as needed by the factory.

While the one I have just bought is the same but does not have any numbers on it ???

There are no signs of the numbers being rubbed off.

Metal is rough and will need light sanding and re colouring.

All parts are the same just have to fit the usual buffer washer o ring breech seal and new spring.

The spring in it was a chrome one and had broken at the front and had been cut down badly also all
screws were loose and incorrect but easy to work on.

Any comments or advice welcome.
