*c-1890* German Made ‘Gem’ .177 Air Rifle. 21310. - 21310
The Gem started off back in the 1870’s, 20 years before many guns we consider as the beginning of the airgun era appeared. The American design was adopted in Germany, and manufacturing started. Made less from engineered steel, and more from castings. A classic Vintage rifle which was produced from around 1870 to about 1930. It was manufactured in both rifled and smooth bore barrels and in .177, .22 and the rare .25cal. This fine example is a .177 calibre. The history of the Gem rifle is all a bit vague and there are plenty of publications, but most of them are contradictory, no surprise there either. What is for certain though is that many were manufactured in Germany for Quackenbush when Haviland and Gunn sold their patents to Mr Henry Marcus Quackenbush of New York. C.G. Bonehill of Birmingham manufactured a modified version of the Quackenbush called the Britannia and this manufacture started around 1905. 16 ½ “barrel (33” overall length) with fixed front and rear sights. The wooden stock is in very good condition for its years with only a few age/use related marks. A steel butt plate is held by two screws. ‘Patent? GEM’ is imprinted on the barrel. See page 122 of Hillers Air Rifles for reference. The loading and firing actions work perfectly. Price includes UK delivery for this very early first series rifle. 21310

*Early 1919 BSA Standard No1 (L Prefix) ‘The 1919 Model’ .177 Air Rifle. AI 723. - AI 723
BSA never actually referred to the first air rifle they advertised after WWI as the ‘1919 Model’. This designation is taken from the sole year of manufacture and is used in this work to describe a transitional model between the pre and post WWI light pattern air rifles. The 1919 Model provides a link between the last of the pre WWI BSA Light pattern air rifles with the between the wars Standard No1 rifles, and for that reason is worthy of study. Manufactured : 1919, approximate serial number range L1 to L1400. The serial number ‘L979’ is located as usual above the two hole trigger block. The more rounded style of 1920s stock was standard by the time L999 was made, once stocks of the pre WWI flat bottom type had been exhausted. See pages 108-110 of John Milewskis ‘The Book of the BSA Air Rifle 1905-1939’. There are no etchings to the cylinder which is correct for this serial number. The stock bolt can be accessed by the removal of the serrated fitted wooden cover. The stock is in lovely condition with only minor age related marks. The pre WWI side button catch on the under lever works as it should. The metalwork is excellent, again with minor surface wear. The price for this rare piece includes UK delivery. AI 723.

It is serial number GD27392 which dates it to between 1959-1965 (see Page 49 of Hillers Book 'A Collectors Guide to Air Rifles'). The wood stock with ribbed butt *5mm mark to the outer edge* and metal work are in very good undamaged condition *black powder paint is wearing on the rear of the cylinder and trigger guard*. It has the automatic tap opening as the under-lever is drawn back and works as it should. As with some other ‘GD’ series the barrel has no markings on top of the barrel.

1929 BSA Standard No1 3rd Series (Transitional Stock Model) .22 Air Rifle with ‘L’ Prefix. 21070. - 21070
This, the Transitional Stock Model 3rd series was different to preceding and subsequent standards in that the rounded stock had the same profile as previous rifles, but the heat impressed chequering had the letters BSA embossed was absent from either side of the stock. This series still utilised the short rear trigger guard tang and has a front blade and rear adjustable sight. The serial No-S29530 which dates the rifle between the years 1929 & 1930 is stamped above the trigger on the left hand side. The beautiful wooden stock and grooved butt is in excellent condition with only the usual age related marks on show. The right hand side of the stock is crisply impressed 'Lincoln Jeffries 121 Steelhouse Lane Birmingham’ along with the Lincoln Jeffries Trademark. The metalwork is in good order, retaining the majority of its colour, again with minor age related marks, and the push button for the release catch on the under leaver works as it should. The rifle measures 45 ½ cm from the butt to the end of the barrel. See page 118 of John Milewski ‘The Book of the BSA Air Rifle 1905-1939’ for reference. The price includes UK delivery. 21070.
