I have a few more to add to my list looking at some of the rifles mentioned already I now consider rare
Air Arms Pro-Target custom! it's block is original but that's about it! super heavy over 20lb but it does shoot better then it looks!
tarted up by Hydrographics (cost more then the donor rifle) but worth it!
Daystate Merlin LE No: 6
I managed to get hold of 1 of these lovelies
I have no:6 in .22 there wasn't that many .22 done only a couple I think? I have only put about 10 shots through it since I bought it! wanted a nice silver bit of glass to go on top! which is on it's way over so it might come out a bit more once it's on top!

Mine is only 12 years old and I don't suppose a Skan Swift in .25 caliber is that uncommon but mine was the first .25 he made and bears the serial SWIFT 1

I have a .25 Scirroco (one of only two I am told, I recently bought it back, I owned it for several years before)
.20 Pro Elite with Lothar Walther barrel, I believe made by factory as looks original, also PE in .177 that is supersonic with everything apart from Bismags
TDs "Emily" the FT championship winning HW77, I dont own it but do look after it for TD, its in cossetted airconditioned luxury, along with TDs Logun "Carbon Fibre" special which I am looking after
Ken Turner special HW80, all stainless steel, another I have bought back after owning a few years ago (the wonders of the worldwide BBS)
And one for the firearms lovers, 22/250 Ackley Improved built by B. Dupuy, winner of several Benchrest comps a decade or two ago and drop dead gorgeous, built on Obendorf action with Lothar Walther barrel, Jewel trigger and superb Walnut stock, 1/2 inch group at 200yds with ease!
Rarest rifle you own
You cant get any rarer than 1 only in existence, i have 5 one offs No2,3,4,7 and 19 right down to the individual design, mechanics and last screw, not modded production rifles like 99.5% are.
I have serious modded production based rifles but they dont count even though theres only one like it.
No one got a Girandi or similar.
I know where a BSA Lincoln Jefferis is,anyone know what it might be worth?
Thanks in advance
I have a Rutten Winstar Mach 1 DE in .177. Never seen much of anything about this rifle anywhere so i am guessing it is pretty uncommon at least
AA s200 with BSA contender 8-32 x 50 - .22
AA S410 with 4-12x44 MTC Viper (.22 and .177 barrels)
I have the oldest surviving gun lock (probably) if that counts? Only a gun part, but you can't get rarer than oldest surviving...
Dated mid to late 15th century by the Royal Armouries, Wars of the Roses period
Does it still work Robin, got a piccy?
I know you have some nice guns.
