Good Points

Accurate, or would be if I had a rear site insert. Sends a .177 pellet at considerable pace. In-expensive.

Bad Points

Try getting parts! Some people think it looks ugly, especially my eldest son, an Airsporter shooter.

General Comments

I'm new to reviewing air rifles but I think vintage ones deserve a mention. It is what I call a gas pipe airgun, some would say its ugly. Beauty is only skin deep! The gun is quite long and perhaps a little unwieldy but I love it. Easy to use and cheap to feed being a .177. I was ripping up beer cans at 50yds despite having no rear sight. Just the two little fingers that hold the insert in place. The foresight blade is a work of art.
I can't wait to get another one like it. I'm not telling you were I got it.....you'll all want one.
Respect it, it'll be 79 this year.

The review mentioned the problem of getting spares. The best source is John Knibbs in Birmingham England. If you would like further info please let me know

John Knibbs is the source of spare parts for a wide variety of vintage air guns especially ones by BSA and Webley. His catalogue is available by writing to John Knibbs International, "Gillia",
Blackfirs Lane, Birmingham, England.
He has also written a great book titled "BSA The Golden Century" which is well worth getting. It details all domestic arms production from 1904 onwards including all air weapons produced last century. A Brilliant Book!!

I have just been given a BSA airgun, but as the script is hard to read I'm not sure if it's a Standard one or two. It's in good nick generally, and has the serial No L21317. Does that mean 21st March 1917? It also has what looks like 4 1/2 LBS stamped on the wood just behind the trigger fixing, so I imagine it's four and a half foot pounds. It's a 177 and the washer appears to be in good condition, but the spring seems weak as it's very easy to load. Any information welcome.
