    Haenel MOD 1V E in .177

    I have been asked to deal with this rifle and would like some idea of its 'attractiveness' to the experts on this forum. I'm probably going to sell it but I'm not certain.
    I would describe the condition as reasonably good and it works pretty well. The rifle is on its own without box or instructions etc.
    As usual any help appreciated!

    Nick they are moderately attractive to collectors in that they are scarce though not exactly rare. But to shooters they are direct copies of the more widely available pre-WW2 BSAs, so don't really carry a price premium. They are much more collectable in Germany, since there are very few prewar airguns around and Haenels are widely collected. Two recent auctions made over 800 euros each.
