BSA Merlin, tiniest underlever ?

[Unframed Dave]

Mine's not separate, or am I misinterpreting something?

BSA produced two pre WW1 air rifles for the younger shooter based on the Improved Mod D, being the 'Junior' and the 'Juvenile' Patterns. The 'Junior' was really just a cut-down version of the mid-length 'Light' Pattern, but the 'Juvenile' was purpose designed for this market.

I believe the dainty 'Juvenile' and 'Merlin, to be the only true examples of BSA air rifles specifically designed for young shooters. The 'Juvenile' would have been quite expensive when first marketed though, so it would have been a very lucky child who received one as a Christmas or Birthday present.

Thanks to deejayuu sending me dimensions, I was able to file up a new pellet transporter out of Delrin for the Merlin. Another non functional item made useable thanks to his help.
