Air Arms Pro Elite. What would you pay?

[Mach 1.5]

Funny enough JB I sold my .22 cal pro elite as it didn't shoot as nice as the .177 cal. I've tried a few 25mm conversions at the bash and must say the do shoot very well. Mach 1.5

one grub screw under the breech block and you can slot in a barrel of your choice. .25 would be fun

Yet another thing that makes the PE so nice. I also loved the factory pivot inserts with their nice wide flanges and removable to boot. My .177 was FAC and shot right on 20 ft. lbs. 1050 fps with 8.44 Exacts. It was very nearly as accurate as my 12 ft. lb. TX200's.

I suspect the collectible value will at sometime outstrip all commentary of how they shoot; if it shoots well thats a bonus.
Basically the price will reflect how good it looks and how near to mint. A rare enough rifle and desirable for collectable reasons alone.
So with walnut stock does it look £750 of lovliness??? I suspect it does as they are good looking.

Did you see the one that was in Daventry guns a few weeks ago,
fancy CS stock tuned by someone I hadn't heard of but very good rep, cant remember his name, from up north, there were three or four from the same collection from the look of it, dearest I've seen,
it was either £1000 or £1200
they had a longbow you mentioned on here,
smart looking bit of kit,

Yes I can ask what it is worth but what would you pay? Air Arms Pro Elite factory walnut stock so 1 of only 57 made
.177 cal complete with AA Manual and spare never used beech stock. Mach 1.5

Personally no more than an HW80 with whatever stock, but that’s me
If they were that great, people would have bought them instead on HW’s at the time eh

I'd forgot about that Paul!

You will find it at the bottom of the page fellas so will need to go through a lot more gun porn I'm afraid.

Right if its the last picture on the page, then the walnut isn't the most exciting.
I'd put a valuation nearer £650 than £750. Here are the reasons why: a good example is worth £550 for rarity, a tad more for .177. The additional stock another £70. For more that £650 the rifle needs to look sexier with more colour to the walnut.
It is a rare rifle and not cheap in its day. £550 is a premium for a second hand rifle. Not many rifles second hand have any premium and most are in freefall until they hit the good value compared to new stuff. So the Pro Elites are already demanding much and doing exceedingly well when most rifles don't. Top price still have to compete with the custom stripey numbers that look the bucks.

Having said that someone might have snapped it up at the top figure and be happy as punch.

mate, I'll advertise one of mine for £10k. You then sell yours for a bargain at half the price £5k, and we split the proceeds. Deal ?
