I thought I had cornered that market
As above, a nice, with much remaining blue, example of the best (from the point of usability IMHO) of the later prewar guns.......Visible etching, nice stock.
For sale??.....
Hurrumph......yes it WAS, at the malvern flea market..and a mate at work snapped it up whilst I was working away....He has just got into older guns after seeing a couple of mine at work....Anyway, good luck to him I suppose, and he did have to shell out £90 for it
Could have been worse.....like say a .25

£90 for an 84 year old airgun they sure saw him coming
Dave...
It gets worse!!!!!!!!!........It was the post Christmas sale.........AND I WAS THERE
My mate collects WW2 medals and suchlike, and the gun was semi hidden, standing upright against the end of a table of a guy who normally just has militaria......I actually walked past the table and remember seeing him (and totally missing the rifle, as if approached from the left, it was behind a cabinet), as he is a fairly regular seller there....It was there from 7.30 till gone midday.....My mate actually walked away from it, and as he had not bought anything else, thought he would see if it was still there on his way out........He just rubbed it in a bit today....ie, "need new glasses?" etc. etc.
Never mind, onwards and upwards!
