One for sale at R Bamfords Eccleston. Looks mint. No connection but thought I would give collector's the heads up.

They are saying it is one of the 110 special edition MK1 Vulcans. The picture of the breech shows a serial number starting with a 6 so it isn't one of the 110 and subsequently does not command that sort of price.
All special edition MK1's have a serial number starting with a 9 & are extremely rare.
The rifle is more than likely a Vulcan Deluxe, they came with gold trigger & safety & lower grade checkered Walnut stock. I know this because I've got a MK1 Deluxe.
Overpriced even in that condition, I would go £300 to £350 maximum. Very common to mistake the Deluxe for the Special edition, even gunshops often misidentify them.

If some one is prepared to give that kind off money for a volcan,
thay would not off ever even fired one.
1 inch groups 25 yards is the best you will ever get.
£425 you can get hw 80 or a 97 , 77 for that money.

Even better looking than a HW35
But what if you didn't want an HW and fancied something different, I agree the price is way over the top and I expect the accuracy isn't as good but some people only collect rifles and like a nice bit of Walnut.
Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

I emailed the shop & let them know it isn't a special edition. They sent me a very nice reply & apparently one of their other customers had mentioned the possibility it may not be an SE & my email confirmed it.
They have amended the advert & price accordingly. Nice to know we have saved them possible trouble with a miss sale.

Still overpriced if you ask me.

Not really. It is a MK1 Deluxe in what looks like pretty mint condition. It has original open sights, which can cost £60 to £70 for the set to buy.
It looks to have a nice walnut stock Fully chequered which would cost you £150 + to buy second hand. .
It also looks like it comes with the scope.
Though not as rare as the Special Edition, they are still not commonly available in that condition.
A good condition MK1 with original sights can go for near £200.
It is also a business, so going to be slightly more expensive. I think £300 is a fair price for a private sale, so £350 not to bad really.

Seems they have dropped the price to £350. Mach 1.5

And removed the 1 of 110 reference.
I'm happy with mine
if some one is in the market for one they will pay top money

The Vulcan is capable of tighter groups than that at 25 yards.
Registered User
True. I get 5p sized groups with all my Vulcan's (I have four) using the new Wasps in .22.
They are a very handy, well built & capable gun. Easy to work on & improve.

The Vulcan is a very underated air rifle ,like the Eclispe and Stingray.
What improvements have you done to yours?
