    Early "Blond" ones make less. Collectors really want it complete with the open sights.
    Yours by the sound of it £150 tops.

    Mint in box then £100 or so more. The premium is for perfect condition. Goes for most 80's rifles. 1984 was a long time ago!

    That sounds like a mk3 S then with the maxirail, and that should fetch a premium as they are rare. I had one that I sold when I sold off all my BSAs.

    Are you sure there's no screw thread on the top of the barrel at the muzzle to fix the front sight, my S carbine has a fixing on the front of the maxigrip rail to fit a Williams style sight, may be yours has been removed but there should be a fixing thread at the muzzle.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
