C1972 Fine Vintage *Fully Serviced* FWB 300S 10m Side Lever .177 Target Air Rifle with Numerous Original Match Scope Variations. AI 880. - AI 880
Manufactured by Feinwerkbau Westinger & Altenburger in West Germany. The modell 300 was much like the 150, in that it has a single coiled, steel mainspring and a thinner, more sporterised stock, yet it was labelled a 300, rather than the 150. You don’t see as many straight 300 rifles as you do 150 rifles these days. Perhaps that’s because when the 300S came out it overshadowed the 300 and drove it from the marketplace in short order. The 300S has two coiled steel springs that are wound in opposite directions, designed to cancel the slight amount of torque at firing. The 300S stock is shorter than the stock on the 300/150. It also has a more vertical pistol grip to enhance the offhand hold. This system is called the sledge system, after the name for a dry-land type of sled whose runners make it easy to drag heavy loads. In the 300-series there is a special system in the stock that isolates the shooter from the movement. A set of steel rails set into the stock allows the action to move while the stock remains still. The shooter doesn’t feel any recoil and only the slightest vibration. It is completely different from the Giss anti-recoil system, in which a counterweighted piston has no discernible recoil. The ratcheting anti-beartrap safety that prevents the sliding compression chamber from smashing your thumb during loading does not need a separate button to release the cocking lever after you’ve loaded. The only extra step the 300S does have is a small locking latch on the sidelever that unlocks the lever at the start of the cocking stroke. These rifles were sold without sights for a slightly reduced price, and many buyers mounted short scopes on their 11mm sight dovetails. The front sight looks more conventional and is of the globe design with replaceable inserts. On the 300S, it’s part of a larger aluminium barrel sleeve that makes it proprietary. This example comes with a plethora of different inserts and shrouds (see images). With the rifle comes several original rear sights and scarce bipod. The beautiful Walnut stock with adjustable butt plate has very minor age-related marks, but nothing major. The metalwork is good with nice blueing and again, only minor age-related marks. The rifle cocks, loads & dry fires perfectly as it should with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery.

SOLD SOLD (09/04) *Unusual* British No5 Bayonet for the Sterling Machine Gun with Bayonet and Frog. BAYO 389. - BAYO 389
The Sterling submachine gun is a British submachine gun (SMG). It was tested by the British Army in 1944–1945, but did not start to replace the Sten until 1953. A successful and reliable design, it remained standard issue in the British Army until 1994, when it began to be replaced by the L85A1, a bullpup assault rifle. Soon after the end of WWII, Sterling offered the Patchett machine carbine for sale to the military and Police markets, at home and abroad. While the folding bayonet was on offer for a short time, it was the No5 that was often supplied. Those Sterling carbines on British issue (L2 series) were easily supplied with service No5 bayonets from store when required, but for extra-service requirements. The commercial manufacture No5 bayonet was available. Wood, Plastic and sheet steel grips have been observed, secured with screws or rivets. This example is unusual in the fact that it has L1A1 960-0011 metal grips added, which is something that we haven’t seen before. See page 253 of Skennerton B312 for reference. The blade length is the correct 8” and the M.R.D. 22.5mm. The blade has no markings and is polished. The No5 scabbard is very clean and is accompanied by a webbing frog.

British (Chromed for Parade) SLR L1A3 Dated 1959 Bayonet by Birmingham Small Arms with Scabbard and Webbing Frog. BAYO 391. - BAYO 391
The British L1A3 bayonet was one of three primary bayonets used with the 7.62mm L1A1 rifle. When this rifle pattern was adopted, its original bayonet was replaced with a British-designed version, adhering to the mid-1940s convention of using a short, bowie-tipped knife blade. The L1A3 improved upon the initial L1A1 design by incorporating a recessed catch-stud, reducing the likelihood of accidental release. First adopted on December 31, 1958, the L1A3 was manufactured by Enfield (ED) and Birmingham Small Arms (B). This bayonet, which is dated 1959, is made by BSA and features a transitional “waisted” Cross guard, supporting that it is an early L1A3 variant. It has the broad arrow acceptance stamps. In the mid-1960s, the blade fuller of the L1A3 was shortened, resulting in a very long ricasso. Marked on the cross guard: B, marked on the ricasso: B59 – dating it as 1959. The chromed scabbard is the No. 5 Mk. I. with round frog stud. The price includes UK delivery. BAYO 391. (Box 1)
