Its a first batch BSA air rifles (Lincoln jeffries pat) from 1905
£130 plus fees is a damn good price
Just sold at auction for £130 plus auction fees.
An old Lincoln Jeffries pattern BSA underlever,no serial number prefix,just the number 1386.
Any ideas as to the model and age?.

The gun in question did appear to have spent some time at the bottom of the Irish sea.
But unfortunately the woodworm must have had scuba gear.
What would be the best course of action with it?.
The same question,just sold at auction for £100 plus fees a BSA Lincoln Jeffries pattern serial number 13981.

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
So 1386 and 13981 effectively one and same model and year?,1905 must have been a prolific year at the BSA factory
13981 would be 1907/1908. Sixth batch of the Lincoln air rifles.

They made both Standards and Light/Ladies models that year (1908). Would need to know the overall length. (I think I am right in saying the Standard and Light models both used the same length stock (14 1/4 inch) so it is only the cylinder and barrel length that was different).
I'll have to get the tape measure out when I get to pick it up.
