We have a club member who is retiring from shooting due to failing health. Among his collection of rifles is a BSA underlever, I put a thread up on the general section a day or two ago, and am opening this one with more specific information.

The serial number is S20994 which dates it from July 1908 to January 1909, and allegedly it's one of the first type with the long cylinder.

It's stamped No 2 calibre by the loading tap.

He's asked the club to take charge of disposing of his collection and so I'm hoping the gurus on here will be able to indicate some idea of the value. It all seems to be there; it's not in showroom condition but it's not red with rust. There's no bluing, just an aged based patina.

A previous owner has done some delicate carving in one side of the butt, to depict an animal's head. It's very fine and almost like a trace left by a woodworm.

Any help much appreciated.
