    BSA military pattern

    Just fell down a freeads hole and saw this:

    https://www.freeads.co.uk/uk/buy-sel...w#.XRHYdxbTWEc

    Is that how much they go for? Gotta be pretty rare.

    If only I could.....

    Matt.

    Knibbs as had one for sale at £4000 for years. but l still think at £2900 that price is still way to high. just my take on it.

    Aye that one has been on there for ages.

    £2900 is way too much, last time I saw one sell was on gun star for around £1500.

    Really nice rifles but people can be over optimistic on prices.

    Ah yes, it’s been on there for 10 weeks.
    Thought that sounded expensive....

    How many have people seen for sale over the years?

    At least 3 have changed hands at Kempton over the last 4 fairs.

    Hello Pete,

    Do you have any idea of the average price across the three sold at Kempton ? I think £3000 would be at the high end these days, but anything around £2000 would an absolute bargain.

    I do know that one with an armoury number on the stock sold for 2K, I would put the going rate nearer £3k, but would not touch the one in this freeads advert.

    What d’you thinks wrong with it peter? Probably worth someone faking for that sort of value.
    Personally I wouldn’t pay that much for something online without having handled it first.
