Haenel 302

What's the thoughts on these?
I have a .22 in nice condition that I'd put away and forgot about (probably came from this forum) and I wondered about their popularity and value too.

Nice guns. Not well-known. Not very sought after. A sort of old-fashioned BSA Meteor equivalent. As such, not worth a great deal, despite their build quality. Price depends on condition, but more of an £80 gun than a £100+ one, even in excellent condition.

Sell very well on egun. Struggled to sell ours but buyer loves it.

Yes, indeed- still do. Very nice wee gun and a real pleasure to use.

I saw a youtube on the 303 last night which I assume was the following model and must date my 302 up to late almost the 70's I guess.
My wood work is fairly good with just a few marks and the metal work very good.
I'm thinking of outing a few of my lesser condition guns in my collection but for the low value versus condition of this one I'll be hanging on to it as it's nice to have something almost unmarked even if low in ranking.

A few years back I visited Mays of London ,a gun shop in Buckhurst Hill.
And they had most of the Haenel range of rifles on display including the 10m target gun.
I should have got one ,they where new old stock.

I had a 303s target rifle, did a lot of work to the internals, re-shaped and re-finished the stock, but then sold it on.

And regretted it.


About 18 months later, I had the opportunity to buy it back - at a higher cost of course!

Not going to sell it again any time soon...

I have got a Haenel 302 (.22) which I have for sale and will be bringing to the Melbourne Airgun Fair (this Sat. 23rd Oct). The action is in excellent condition with hardly any signs of wear on the blueing. The auto safety works as it should. The stock, on the other hand, has been nicely refinished but is showing signs of cracking around the pistol grip.
