1922-1929 BSA Standard No2 Pattern 2nd Series (S Pre-Fix) .22 Air Rifle. AI 724. - AI 724 The serial No S25202 dates this rifle to circa: 1922-29. When mention is made of the BSA Standard No1 and Standard No2 spring to mind., but it should be remembered that BSA referred to their full length .177 and .22 air rifles as the standard. In 1907 BSA used the term ‘ordinary pattern’ to differentiate the full length .177 from the light pattern, and by 1909 the company was calling the full length rifles the standard pattern. This example is in fine condition with some blueing missing to expose the nice metalwork. It has the usual BSA wording to the metalwork. The wooden stock is in very nice condition with an unusual tiger stripe, it has no notable marks and is the correct pre WWII item. The rifle cocks, loads and fires as it should. See page 124 of ‘The Book of the BSA Air Rifle 1905 to 1939’ by John Milewski (available on our website). The price for this piece of history includes UK delivery. AI 724. £445.00
