Seeing as the jackel models all have different length barrels and they allhave the same screw in barrel arrangement could someone have changed the barrel? My jackel has a very long barrel. Where my khamsin has a barrel a few inches shorter.

If Air Arms did indeed use some of the Sussex Armoury stamped cylinders they would have been used on the very early models whereas the Bora was not launched until 1985 so it can't be a true Bora or one of the rumoured transitional rifles.

Maybe you have an old Sussex Armoury action that has been put in a modified Bora stock?

Not sure of actual date but it was launched way before 1995. I bought one new and pretty sure it was in the mid eighties.

Whoops! I meant 1985.

Been in contact with a guy on email and he thought from the pics it might be an NSP engineering model before they decided on the air arms name and that it might be a transition Supra using Sussex Armoury parts from early 1983 with possibly an air arms front sight and recoil pad added later. He has made me a good offer for it, if this is correct what would the valuation be?

Sounds like a Bin End rifle from the take over.
