They are very nice, and seemingly quite hard to find, but those are aftermarket grips and imho don’t do much for the look of the gun either.
May be £150 as a shooter rather than a collectible? Not sure.
Valuations please on this Crosman mk2 target pistol
It has the power adjuster screw (earlier mk2’s) & the two stage cocking hammer
I’m not sure if the grips are original as I’ve only ever seen the black & red grips?

Morally flawed
Thanks, yes they’re becoming harder to find
I’ve just found this from “airguns & air pistols by L Wesley” with a mk1/mk2 on front cover with the checkered grips, might be the red grips but look too light?
Maybe they produced a few different colours over the years?

The Crosman Mk1 and Mk2 expert Todd Cooper wrote:
Grip Colours
Over the many years of manufacture the colour tones in the Mk I grips have been found ranging from a dull matte brown with no colour swirls to a high gloss grip with highly visible contrasting colour swirls. The Mark II grips range from a dull black to a high gloss shine. These grip variants seem to be independent of the year of manufacture and are not a good way to speculate dates.

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
that or one with the same zebrano grips has been for sale a few times maybe on here or the other forum
Those grips look like the ones that were sold by 'The Crooked Barn' in the USA.
Back in the day when there was 2$ to the GBP
price wise £150 is a fair price for a mk11 in that condition imo
when i saw it first it was £275 i think and i thought for it's condition it was a bit dear
a mate sent me the link before you posted and if i hadn't just bought a few other guns i may have bought it ,i think there's a 451 on at the moment as well
