C1936 BSA Standard No2 T Prefixed .22 Air Rifle with Rear Aperture Sight. 21805. - 21805 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 5150’ 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. This example is also fitted with a rear aperture sight which is quite rare. The number 66 or 99 is stamped to all metal parts throughout the rifle. It has the correct flat top breach. The metalwork retains the majority of its blueing with only minor signs of age-related wear. The woodwork is good with a few marks which is to be expected. The walnut stock is in good condition and has the BSA letters carved in relief amongst the chequering on both sides. The rear aperture sight is a fine addition and is working as it should. See page 143-5 & 189 of The Book of the Air Rifle by John Milewski. The rifle has been chrono graphed and cocks, loads and fires as it should. The price for this piece of history includes UK delivery. 21805 £595.00
