Evening airgunners

I was reminiscing about my first air rifle I would have got about '87, I remember it was £40 with a wide angle scope and bag from foto-kam in Birkenhead (now sadly closed, a proper old fashioned back street shop, selling cameras, remote control planes, airguns etc) after about 2 years the owner offered me back what I paid for it (stunned at the time as I wasn't even part exchanging). What I am getting to is that i've looked on BSa's website but it doesn't say when the super meteor was introduced

If anyone can shed any light on this, or any North-Westerners remember the shop, I would be very interested.

Thanks

Andy
