**SCARCE**1905-1908 ‘The Lincoln’ Jeffries Steelhouse Lane Birmingham .177 Calibre Break Action Variant Air Rifle. Sn 18085:6. - 18085:6
B.S.A. Lincoln Jeffries Patent Air rifles were introduced in 1905. The Lincoln & 'H' or Heavy model were produced between 1905-1908. All of the examples we have seen have been underlever variants & we cannot find any reference for break action variants. This example of the Lincoln Jeffries has the characteristics and markings of the Lincoln model apart from the fact that it is break action, rather than underlever as illustrated and described on page 17 of The Collector's Guide to Air Rifles by Hiller. The metal work has even blue finish and it has all original wood stock with chequered panel straight hand stock and chequered butt. The stock is impressed 'Lincoln Jeffries 121 Steelhouse Lane Birmingham’. The rifle measures 39 ¾” overall with an 18 ¾” two stage barrel. The top barrel flat is stamped 'The Lincoln Air Rifle’. The cylinder and trigger block are numbered ‘8009 / 009’. It has a blade foresight and ‘v’ notch plate rear sight. It loads and fires correctly with a good spring action. The price for this scarce Lincoln variant includes UK delivery. Sn 18085:6

*Rare* c1882 Model 2 Langenhan “Dolla” .177 Pop-Out Pistol AI 742. - AI 742
The story of Langenhan begins in 1842 Germany in the town of Mehlis, Thüringen with Valentin Friedrich Langenhan (10th June 1819 – 2nd March 1886). Valentin, who at this time was 23, along with his father, Johann Gottlieb Langenhan, 51, bought a shop in which they set up their gunsmith business. Together they produced and sold various gun parts such as flintlocks, hair-set locks, guards, caps, tools and knife blades. Johann (16th May 1791 – 15th January 1883) was a master gunmaker and personally trained his son Valentin in the art. It is said that Valentin preferred to use his second name Friedrich which is frequently seen in Langenhan company literature. Perhaps this was to differentiate himself from another Valentin Langenhan who operated an iron and steel works that was also located in Mehlis. Also known as the EG 2 it also has the fame of being an authentic Eisenwerke Gaggenau product that will be at least 130 years old. The first thing to look for an authentic EG 2 is the number of pins/screws above the trigger guard. The genuine EG No 2 has three of these whereas all other versions have just two. Another easy way to tell is to look at the right hand grip screw. In the EG the screw is set in a diamond shape. Both of these features of the EG2 are clearly shown in the 1895 Eisenwerke Gaggenau catalogue. The pistol retains the majority of its nickel. It cocks and fires perfectly with a strong spring action.

C1905 Variant III Langenhan “Dolla” .177 Pop-Out Pistol AI 741. - AI 741
The story of Langenhan begins in 1842 Germany in the town of Mehlis, Thüringen with Valentin Friedrich Langenhan (10th June 1819 – 2nd March 1886). Valentin, who at this time was 23, along with his father, Johann Gottlieb Langenhan, 51, bought a shop in which they set up their gunsmith business.

Johann (16th May 1791 – 15th January 1883) was a master gunmaker and personally trained his son Valentin in the art. It is said that Valentin preferred to use his second name Friedrich which is frequently seen in Langenhan company literature. Perhaps this was to differentiate himself from another Valentin Langenhan who operated an iron and steel works that was also located in Mehlis. The third variant of the Dolla air pistol was manufactured by Eisenwerke Gaggenau. It was available in both finishes and was also called the Nr. 2. For certain this time, Langenhan also manufactured the pistol and designated it the Nr. 1 and Nr. 2 in black lacquered and nickel-plated finishes respectively. Production dates of the third variant are believed to be between 1905 and 1927 but possibly up to 1934 as discussed earlier. The pistol retains remnants of its black lacquer. It cocks and fires perfectly with a strong spring action. See page 78 of the Collectors Guide to air pistols by Dennis E. Hiller for reference. The price includes UK delivery. AI 741.

Perhaps this was to differentiate himself from another Valentin Langenhan who operated an iron and steel works that was also located in Mehlis. Manufactured with five different variants, this IV example (This pistol is easily distinguished from the earlier variants by its oval trigger guard aperture. It retains a kidney-shaped grip; however, it loses the convex front edge. The visible locating notch that is present on the rear of the grip of the third variant has also been removed. Instead, two locating lugs were added to the inside the grip) retains the majority of its nickel plate *small fracture to left hand side above trigger-does not affect use*.

C1972 Fine Vintage *Fully Serviced* FWB 300S 10m Side Lever .177 Target Air Rifle with Numerous Original Match Scope Variations. AI 880. - AI 880
Manufactured by Feinwerkbau Westinger & Altenburger in West Germany. The modell 300 was much like the 150, in that it has a single coiled, steel mainspring and a thinner, more sporterised stock, yet it was labelled a 300, rather than the 150. You don’t see as many straight 300 rifles as you do 150 rifles these days. Perhaps that’s because when the 300S came out it overshadowed the 300 and drove it from the marketplace in short order. The 300S has two coiled steel springs that are wound in opposite directions, designed to cancel the slight amount of torque at firing. The 300S stock is shorter than the stock on the 300/150. It also has a more vertical pistol grip to enhance the offhand hold. This system is called the sledge system, after the name for a dry-land type of sled whose runners make it easy to drag heavy loads. In the 300-series there is a special system in the stock that isolates the shooter from the movement. A set of steel rails set into the stock allows the action to move while the stock remains still. The shooter doesn’t feel any recoil and only the slightest vibration. It is completely different from the Giss anti-recoil system, in which a counterweighted piston has no discernible recoil. The ratcheting anti-beartrap safety that prevents the sliding compression chamber from smashing your thumb during loading does not need a separate button to release the cocking lever after you’ve loaded. The only extra step the 300S does have is a small locking latch on the sidelever that unlocks the lever at the start of the cocking stroke. These rifles were sold without sights for a slightly reduced price, and many buyers mounted short scopes on their 11mm sight dovetails. The front sight looks more conventional and is of the globe design with replaceable inserts. On the 300S, it’s part of a larger aluminium barrel sleeve that makes it proprietary. This example comes with a plethora of different inserts and shrouds (see images). With the rifle comes several original rear sights and scarce bipod. The beautiful Walnut stock with adjustable butt plate has very minor age-related marks, but nothing major. The metalwork is good with nice blueing and again, only minor age-related marks. The rifle cocks, loads & dry fires perfectly as it should with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery.
