I have had a couple of Spitfires including the Bisley model. I think John Bowkett charges £120 to get them better than originally factory supplied. The "secret" of keeping them in good fettle is to use them regularly, I used to cock and fire mine every couple of weeks even if I never went shooting. John reckons the Spitfire and Firebird are two of the most accurate rifles BSA made. I now just have the Firebird which I prefer because you can change barrels with just a couple of allen screws.
