EXTREMELY RARE, 1890 To Early 1900's German Gem Break Action Combination Air Rifle Imported / Retailed by Arbenz Birmingham Capable of Firing Air Gun Pellets, or 32 Rim Fire Obsolete Calibre Bullets or Shot Shells. Sn 17182. - 17182 Gem Style Air rifles were produced from the 1890's to 1920. The patents for Gem Air Rifles were made out in 1894 and adverts for Gems have been seen as late as 1911 (see page 124 of A Collector's Guide to Air Rifles by Hiller). The break action of these models is performed by depression of the thumb operated lever located on top of the breech. This is an extremely rare example capable of firing .32 calibre rim fire ammunition (bullets or shot shells) & lead air gun pellets (internet resources indicate that .177 calibre air gun pellet conversion tubes were available in the period, ours is without conversion tube). C1887-1911, the New York based American inventor / gun maker Henry Marcus Quackenbush produced this type of weapon designated the Quackenbush model 5, very similar in appearance to our German made Gem (see page 188 of A Collector's Guide To Air Rifles By Hiller). Our Gem has a 17 ¾” round blued steel barrel stepped to octagonal and is just measures 35” overall length. The smoothbore has just light staining consistent with age. It has a blade fore sight, and the rear sight is a notched block which forms part of the barrel release catch. The breech has a winged manually operated extractor plate to extract 32 RF ammunition and its rim fire firing pin is present and functions as it should. Its action, cylinder tube and curved butt plate retain most of their original factory nickel plating. The original walnut shoulder stock has just light bumps and bruises to be expected. The top of the barrel is signed ‘Patent Gem No. 10937 together with crossed pistols trademark. One barrel flat is marked ‘Arbenzs Patent’ next to proof / inspection marks (A. Arbenz was a Birmingham based importer / retailer of Gem Air Rifles, see page 127 of Hiller’s book). The inside of the breech block above the pellet loading hole is stamped with faint numbers which appear to be ‘15’ ‘19’ and ‘1078’. The spring arm has matching number ‘078’. The cocking, loading & firing actions work as they should. The price for this extremely rare piece of firearms / air gun history worthy of further research. As an antique obsolete calibre combination gun, no licence is required to possess in the UK if held for collecting and display. The price includes UK delivery. Sn 17182. £875.00 |

*As New 11.47 ft/lbs* Air Arms Pro Sport Walnut .22 Air Rifle with an ER 4-16x44 SFIR Scope. AI 588. - AI 588 The Pro Sport by Air Arms is quite often 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 very good. The pistol grip cap is marked and will be addressed before sale. The rifle comes with an as new T-Eagle ER 4-16x44 SFIR Scope. The rifles loading & firing action work crisply firing at a respectable 11.47 ft/lbs. Serial No-182177. The price for this very original 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. £895.00 |

*Scarce Pre-WWII* Early Model Millita Original ‘V’ .177 Air Rifle by F. Langenham. 22253. - 22253 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. This example being the rifled version with the under latch, it comes with the F.L.Z. trademark stamped to the air chamber and an Original V within a circle stamped to the side of the stock. The serial number is stamped to the left side of the air chamber-L37042. See page 161 of The Collectors Guide to Air Rifles by Dennis Hiller for reference. The metalwork is good with only minor age-related pitting in areas. The wooden stock and butt plate are in very nice condition also, with a nice patina. It cocks and fires perfectly with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery. 22253. £595.00 |

C1933 BSA Standard No2 T Prefixed .22 Air Rifle. 21984. - 21984 The No2 Standard was prefixed with a T from January 1936. The rifle has a clear T-prefix serial number on the underside of the 3-hole trigger housing. The serial number of this example is ‘T 1960’ which dates it to between 1936 & 1939. This type of rifle originates from the work of a gentleman inventor and engineer Lincoln Jefferies. He held the original patent which was logged in 1906. It is a solid barrel and cylinder with an under-lever for re-charging the air piston. There is a loading Tap approximately halfway along the length of the weapon, which when tipped forward opens a chamber to place the pellet or steel ball bearing within. This is closed so sealing the chamber and the weapon is ready to fire. Just forward of the loading port are the rear sights which are adjustable. It has the correct flat top breach. The metalwork retains almost all its blueing with only minor signs of age-related wear *the foresight has been professionally brazed in place*. The woodwork is good with a few marks which is to be expected. The walnut stock is in good condition and has the BSA piled arms logo to one side and chequering on both sides of the pistol grip.

Diana's model 35 was one of the most powerful spring guns in the 1950s. Series 2 was made until 1987. Dianas were sold in the U.S. under many brand names, which confuses collectors.
