    Depending where they are being advertised I don't think people ask silly money for them, Been some bargains on the forums, The xxxadds site however I think most sellers are on some really good ganja with the prices they have been asking for , Not
    Just rapids either, I not long ago bought a 1995 I think mk1 rapid with walnut stock, Came as standard with an original long series slim silencer , it also came with 3x7 shot mags and a 2 shot mag, Also with it was a boxed Hawke 3-9×50 scope and a nikko sterling platinum 3-9×50 scope with ruby lense and box, Had lots of strip manuals and other papers which come with it from new, The gun ain't shot a full tin of pellets from new and feels and looks like new,Also come with stirrup pump and waxed gun case, Paid £600 but this was on the same site and been advertised for 7 weeks before I bought it.

    Just a rough price and my thoughts, £750 would be a good buy for someone, Think between that and £850, That anti tamper would be a big bonus to most buyers, I think untouched ones are going to be the ones to look out for.

    unless you are a collector I still say get a bit of a pup and send it to be sorted...it will end up better. I now have 4 - 3 x MFR's and a nice Mk1. Do I need any others...nope...would I buy one with a nice sentinel stock if it appeared, oh yes.

    thanks

    The Rapid looks almost presentable compared with the Black Fox.
