BSA Airsporter Mk 3

[SUPER1010]

Hi all, I have recently acquired a BSA Airsporter Mk 3, the serial number begins with GG (1968/69).
I have been looking round the internet to find a similar gun, and the Mk3 seems quite rare, any ideas on value, I don’t intend to sell as it was left to me by a good friend who bought it new, it’s in first class condition
Any information would be appreciated cheers .

It was there a long time.

I've got a Mk 4 in vgc condition, paid around £120 - a few years ago - from here. Much prefer it to my Mk 2, or later ones I've tried. If I wanted to sell it, I'd put it for c.£180.

Hi thanks for your replies, I was thinking about £180 due to its condition, I have stripped the varnish off the woodwork and stained it walnut, finishing off with Napier stock finish. It looks great, just need a rearsight for it now. Thanks again.

The rearsight was metal on the Mk3 and is about the most desirable feature of this mark.
