There's only one way to sort this out....FIGHT...
"AND APERTURE SIGHT" .......being the difference
BSA woodwork in good order normally fetches between £30+ - £70+ depending, with the lowest price seemingly being for a 20's heat impressed type, then the later 'BSA' impressed type, with early pistol / straight hand types next, and Lincoln Jeffries ones at the top.....interesting trade / retailers plates and stamps, and clear markings all help, and if someone was to put for example, an early factory presentation stock (in-letted plate /plaque with details, selected walnut etc.) on to the bay..I could see it going over the £100 very easily
Stocks factory inletted, and fitted with factory supplied early (model 21-21b) apertures.....I would say £80 is very fair if in good order.......try and find a sight alone for less than that as they very, very rarely come on the market....I will put my hands up and say I personally have bought complete rough guns just to get them
.
I looked at quite a lot of CS models prior to buying mine and from my experiences your rifle is probably worth £150+ with that peep/diopter sight despite the non standard parts fitted
As Lakey says, the 'C' - Club model was quite rare and the peep sight alone would be difficult to source and perhaps pricey to buy
I fully restored mine as the photo etching had long gone.
There is little stamping on the metalwork so dressing and polishing out the surface pitting is achievable. It took me 9 - 10 hours to prepare mine for a reblue but the results were well worth it

hold me back !!
Lets add it up
Stock = £60 approx
No 21 Aperture sight = £50 minimum
Stock bolt = £5-£8
rearsight = £15-20 maybe
Push button underlever = £10 minimum
Auxilliary cocking lever = £8 - £10 minimum
Cylinder and tap assembly = £20 - £25
Piston = £15 all day long
Spring = £5
Trigger block = £20 at least ( especially with rare 'C' prefix)
Trigger guard £10 at least
Well these prices are easily achievable on fleabay, so what is the total for the gun based on these prices ???
Over £200 on scrap value alone !!!!!!
Is that realistic or am I on some sort of pipe dream. I see that prices 'the bay' makes, so valuations on this gun of sub £100, are way out IMHO
Room for thought......
Lets see what others think ??
Lakey
Oh and I forgot to include......
Repro foresight = £5-£10
Underlever catch post = £3-£5
Pair of trigger guard screws = £5 minimum
Underlever pivot pin and aux cocking lever pivot screw = £2-£3
Original wooden stock bolt cover,spring steel oval washer and original screws = £20 + ( how many 100's of guns are missing this - and originals are Rocking Horse Poo!!)
See how easy I can mount up........
