    Holts auction.

    Just been going through the on line auction of air guns and if you tune in you will see the prices they have made. Always interesting when i hve some of the models auctioned .Prices seem good especially on the rarer models such as the bsa military patterns and mk service which i have a number of. Webley mk2 sevice in .25 cal fetched £1600 plus comm. mine has the 3 barrels set looking good. Tune in and have a look.

    Thanks for that Roly, as I too have a few Service rifles to dispose of, including a .25 with .177 and .22 barrels.
    Some of the Webley pistol prices were interesting, as I have a few of those to dispose of as well.

    The haenel repeater for £1700 plus fees caught my eye

    Unlike a milpat or a service, when was the last time you saw one of those for sale? Interesting engineering too.

    There were a couple at Protek about 12 years ago (Half stock and Junior). One at a Sussex/ Kent area auction about 8-10 years ago ( can't remember who, Half stock ). A very tatty Junior on egun a few years ago that sold for €2000+ (smashed stock and rusty ). A Full stock sold on Auction Arms for IRO $500 after hanging around for a bit, ( this one did not have the drum and cover but did AIR have the side linkage- so the tap auto-opened and shut ). I know of a standard IVe that has been fitted with a copy of the drum mechanism.
    The example sold today at Holts was the star of the show and worth every note. The buyer will be over the moon with this fabulous piece! ( It wasn't me by the way!....)

    Wish it was mind you.

    There was a .22 cal Haenel mod IV Rep on egun a while ago but missing the drum mag too. I was tempted because I have a fairly low-powered .22 cal mod V Junior repeater in nice condition and I thought about swapping the drum over. But it went for too much.
