Thread: Air rifle value.

Hi, newbie here, I have a vintage BSA Airsporter in .22 to sell but haven't got enough info to come up with a price.
It's a 1950s model, I know that much and possibly one of the first.
Has under barrel lever and is showing it's age but not badly. Still shoots OK but it underwent a resto in the 70s which involved re-blueing the barrel and breech so the original markings are gone.
Anybody an got ideas of its value?
Cheers

Welcome Robman

I'm sure someone here will be able to give you an idea of the value , but we need pics!

Will do.

Probably a buy for someone with a sentimental leaning
Back in the day BSA and Diana were "the" air rifles but times have changed a lot. In good nick and with a good barrel, Id say $150 -$200 would be fair (IMHO)

Trying to get pics from my phone onto here, there doesn't seem to be a pathway from the phone.

Hi Robman, would be interested if you have still, hopefully you get the post, cheers

You might have to do a few more posts before youre enable to upload pics.
Often an enquiry about value of a gun will go in the Firearms and Optics section.
Once you have a few more posts you’ll be able to see the Buy Sell Exchange section too.

Try Youngs airguns in Auckland for value, they are one of the best specialists around
