In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
BSA Cadet Major £400,surely that's a hefty price?
Auction Fever
A good day all round
A man can always use more alcohol, tobacco and firearms.
They had a couple of nice looking BSA early Airsporters MK1 and MK2 for sale , and a boxed Mercury for what looked like ok estimates.
Don't know if they sold.
Never been to an Auction , make me nervous.
Probably easy to get carried away.
Does anybody know what the very nice Original 50E in .177, went for? Very Nice gun that

Considering the last break barrel sold for 3.3k Chris, I'd say your assumptions are correct... The previous one was also a 50, break barrel and standard sporter stock, but in very good condition. A fixed barrel left handed gun sold for 2.9k in the last auction, so this one went quite cheap really.
the cost is soon forgotten
