I managed to find an early variant

.177 boxed & with a spare .22 barrel, best of both worlds

Nice. Does it have a proper front sight, not the fibre-optic silliness?

Yes it’s got the proper original front n rear sights no horrid fibre optics

SN36**** anyone know what year this is I believe 86?

I saw that it’s a bargain if your near to the shop I’m sure that will go quick

Yes it’s going to me, reserved with deposit

I’m not going to say how much but it was a bargain price

Each to his own.

Me, I like “proper” sights for target shooting and think fibre-optics are a solution to a non-existent problem which create a new, real, problem.

Tritium, on the other hand, is very useful on a “social” weapon.

Just thought I’d have a scroll on VAG & my HW45 is up on site alreadyThat was quick, thanks Garvin

I have a BSA breakdown if you’d like to add to the VAG http://www.airgunbbs.com/showthread....down-valuation

I've just sold a couple of early variant HW45's; one with the impressed lettering was in a fitted upper and lower styrene tray with a brown illustrated card outer sleeve, and the other with laser lettering was in a fitted styrene tray within a white card HW illustrated box, but neither were in a box like the one shown by the OP.

Thanks Lee.

I don't add absolutely everything to the gallery and that BSA Breakdown is neither uncommon nor particularly interesting IMO. The HW45 is fairly scarce, it seems. (Loads will probably turn up now )

[BSFNUT]

I have a one ( .177 dual power) with the stamped model number not white paint but the wooden grips do not have a medallion - is this an earlier version than the one with the Hw medallion ????

There’s no need for that

Yes it’s not uncommon nor particularly interesting, there’s not many Breakdowns on their so I thought you might like to add it, no worries
