    3 guns you wished you'd not sold-on...

    I was looking through the forum and face book and I was thinking I had one of them... sorry I sold it.
    Then I thought what 3 air rifles I'm sorry I got rid of. So these are 3 of my all time D'oh moments...

    Falcon 12" Light Hunter (needed money as I got taken off shifts for a year)
    Daystate PH6 (as above)
    Sharps Ace (sold to fund a Rapid 7)

    HW77K, Rapid 7 MKI . HW97Colt GC, S&W 686 (CO2) HW75 . HW100K FSB

    They are every bit as good as you think they are

    Only one, a superb Mk. 1 Airsporter .22 ! Very good bluing and etching with a gorgeous dark “tiger stripe” stock with BSA stamp on butt.
    I know who still owns it and he loves it as much as I did !

    In 1982, my Dad refurbed a BSA Lincoln Jeffries, it was rusty with a broken stock. He polished it and had it nickel plated, he made a new stock from mahogany if I remember. To a 12 year old it was like a jewel. He sold it a few weeks later and I was in tears. I would love to know where it is now. Distinctive marks are all the sharp edges were filed and softened before polishing and plating.

    My Dad died a few years ago and as he had re-married his Brocock went to someone. It looked like the S6 carbine but was a development model that my Dad had built with a chap from Brocock. It didn't have a single standard part on it. Handbuilt stock, top end barrel and hand made trigger mech. I tried to buy it in 2017 with no luck.

    I have just the two guns that I’ve regretted selling.
    A mk1 Bsa Superstar in .177 , I had just bought a Rapid 7 and assumed I didn’t need another airgun .
    And a very nice AA S400 with a lovely tiger stripe walnut stock.
    I have since replaced the Superstar with a very nice mk1 in .177 from forum member WILBA :cool.
    I Have no regrets about selling some of my collection since.
