    Full auto Drozd would be much better than the Crosman M1 Carbine. (Could be totally irrelevant to the question perhaps )

    Answers:

    1) .177 Its a HW55 target rifle. You can tel with the distinctive collar around the trigger adjusting screw.
    2) BSA MERCURY
    3) BSA MERLIN.
    4) Female HW '35 Vixen due to the chrome side catch.
    5) Sharp ACE.
    6) BSF I would accept Bavaria or Germany.
    7) Original 45 due to the stock cross pins I would have accepted 50TO1.
    8) HW Export due to the pistol grip cap with 22" barrel - [I]two little ducks 22/I] !
    9) Falke - FALCON.
    11) CCL oil so LEMON
    12) Appel mount so APPLE.

    I hope you enjoyed the quiz as much as I enjoyed trying to baffle you.

    Stay safe.
