Read the book ..digested it ...couple of questions

[let me shoot it]

Were the early models autoloading if you like ... eg cocked and tap would go up auto..
2nd has anyone managed to get a picture of the tool they used at the time to push pellet in and adjust trigger . ??

Thanks in advance ...

Ps do the military pattern air rifles really shoot as good as he says ☺

No, sadly there were no self opening taps like the early Airsporters, other than perhaps a couple of prototypes.

There are pics of the BSA tool (2 types) on the Vintage Airgun Gallery

And yes, the Military Pattern shoots incredibly well in the right hands. I once witnessed our club's top shot drop a number of FT Nockover targets placed up to 30 yards away with every shot when the light was becoming so dark that I was struggling to see the targets!
