id say the ripley/hogan elete ft, hw 101 f/l, ph6, logun prof and solo, daystate midas "brass tube" and 80,s ftr
Air arms TDR values seem to stay very strong. Think if AA stopped making them, values would go up.
AA won't stop making them as such a simple rifle sold at such a premium.
Thanks - Geoff.
A Spartan anyone,surely an instant collectable?.
still got my immaculate gamekeeper with 2 barrels but never got round in making new seals for it,,,,,price will only go up regardless

Richard,
Don't forget to add the scimitars numbered from 1000-1015 and there were some customer chosen numbers. I'm aware of 2x mark1s numbered 25 and 25l for example made for a left and right handed couple who shot ft in the late 80s.
My scimitar is no 1000 and was John Ford's personal rifle :-)
oh has anyone mentioned a ISP spartan?
Pete
The man has a point here. To be 'collectable' i think...
...quirkiness helps...
...low volume production is a definite benefit...
...and the ability to bring a smile to your face when you get the damn thing out...
...are ALL qualities which should be possessed by a future 'collectable' - a positive 'must' to ensure increasing value.
SO, I concur: ALROS TRAILSMAN [and mine is the slim tube 'octoshot' version]
How about the Stalkers? Adrian Hartley could put a sweet action together and the wood was always very special. I have had one from new - very nice rifle.
