This is an excellent rare to find Westley Richards & Co Ltd ‘Highest Possible’ .177 Calibre Air pistol. It is the 2nd variant (1st variants had smooth horn grips and a void heart shaped section in the grip frame, see pages 245-246 0f Air Pistols by Dennis Hiller later variants including the 2nd type are found with chequered vulcanite grips). Manufactured by Westley Richards of London, Patented in 1907 and manufactured between 1909 to late 1914, the design was patented by E. Anson, a relative of W. Anson of the well-known partnership Anson & Deeley. Westley Richards is one of the oldest surviving traditional handmade gun and rifle makers in England. Founded over 200 years ago in 1812, in Britain’s historic gun-making capital of Birmingham, this air pistol is “the key contributor of the British air pistol revolution during the early 20th century”. The quality of the pistol was such that air pistols could no longer be considered children’s toys. Prior to this, the air pistol market was dominated by importers such as Germany and the USA. This pistol is one only approximately 1200 manufactured making this a scarce collectable air pistol. The pistol is crisply stamped ‘WESTLEY RICHARDS “HIGHEST POSSIBLE” AIR PISTOL together with crisp ‘PATENT 24837 1907’ on the frame. The trigger, trigger guard frame and front of the action have matching number ‘95’. The pistol has undamaged smooth walnut grips which are undamaged (possibly a custom bespoke Westley Richards order which they are known to have produced). It has a 9 ¾ “rifled barrel and is 12 ¼” overall length. The rear sight is adjustable for elevation only and its fore sight is a blade on the fore end barrel block. The pistol’s barrel and cylinder section are released for concentric action cocking by operation of a steel sprung lever on the rear grip frame of the pistol and cocking is assisted by a small folding lever on the back of the grip frame which when folded out assists leverage during the cocking action. The pistol cocks and fires with a strong spring action. The price for this very rare sought after collectors piece includes UK delivery. Sn 23656

**POWERFUL 11.47 FT / LBS** Air Arms Pro Sport Walnut .22 Air Rifle With ER 4-16x44 SFIR Telescopic Sight. AI 588 - AI 588
The Pro Sport by Air Arms is regarded as one of the best spring-powered air rifles available today. This rifle is an under-lever, but instead of the lever being out the front of the rifle, upsetting the balance, it's neatly recessed within the stock, keeping the balance nicely proportioned. Along with this revolutionary design, the Pro Sport has the tried and tested 'CD' trigger system for a crisp and clean let-off every time. An anti-bear trap system is built into the rifle, which prevents the rifle from firing when the cocking arm is open. The mechanism inside the Air Arms Pro-Sport slides on synthetic bearing material, which reduces friction in both firing and cocking. The overall Length is 1050mm, barrel Length 243mm. The previous owner found the rifle not to their liking and it appears relatively little used (if at all) as it still has the original swing tag in place. The metalwork *small mark to the tip of the barrel* and Walnut woodwork *small mark to the left-hand side fore below screw* are excellent. The pistol grip cap also has a mark. The rifle comes with an excellent T-Eagle ER 4-16x44 SFIR Scope. The rifles loading & firing action work crisply firing at a powerful 11.47 ft/lbs. The rifle is Serial No-182177. The price for this excellent air rifle and scope includes UK delivery. NB As a post 1939 Air Weapon the restrictions of the Crime Reduction Act apply to the sale & delivery of this item. AI 588
