    No it’s not a BSA special.
    I helped sell the collection this rifle came from. A very sad case of someone who passed away long before what should have been their time. He liked doing up rifles to his taste and sprayed and put these graphics on his stocks. There was a maroon Airsporter S which thankfully I managed to find a replacement stock and salvaged the situation.
    Both the gun mentioned and the Airsporter are in immaculate condition and virtually unfired. Just the art work is not to everyone’s taste. A lovely gun but no BSA limited edition.
    Cheers

    People said smile things could get worse, so I smiled and they did!

    I.J. You had a good deal there, I regret selling it far too cheap and wish I had kept it....

    Kind regards....

    My Original Rapid Mk1 Laminate Target stock has been granted the rapid 7 ugliest stock on Guys Rapid 7 Owners Club forum, Obviously done for some ones taste but i have never found a single person who likes the spray job,,, Including myself. Would have to be stripped if i ever use it .

    And I bet if you asked Custom Stocks to make you a stock to fit a BSA they would say no and say they never made them for Beezas.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    I have and you are partially correct, they don’t deny making them in the past but that the patterns they had were for an older process and not compatible with their current machinery.

    So, if anyone knows of a custom stock for an underlever Goldstar..
