**VERY RARE** ONE OF 2000**Cased, 1946 -1949, British Abas Major 2nd Type (A.A. Brown & Sons) .177 Calibre Air Pistol With Correct Smooth Brown Plastic Grips & Accessories. Sn 23484:24 - 23484:24 A.A. Brown & Sons were established in 1930 at Whittall St in Birmingham and mainly concentrated on making sporting guns but towards the end of the thirties and during WW2 they were producers of weapon components and machine tools. After the war both work and the necessary materials to continue with their normal line of work dried up and the company were scratching around for things to enable them to survive. This inspired them to produce an air pistol entirely of their own design which was marketed as the “Abas Major” (the name Abas derived from the initials of the company name). One of only three English air pistols that use a tap loader, the Abas Major was produced between 1946 & 1949. Only 2000 Abas Major’s were manufactured. The underlever (trigger guard) cocking air pistols were produced in three variations which can be identified by the grips. The first model had walnut grips, the second model had smooth plastic grips and the final model had chequered plastic grips. Although work like this helped the company though a difficult period, they soon returned to their normal product line and were a renowned manufacturer and customiser of high quality sporting guns. This is an excellent original example of the 2nd pattern Abas Major with correct smooth plastic grips in .177 calibre. The pistol retains its original blue finish and the grips are undamaged. It has a blade fore sight and adjustable rear sight. The top of the cylinder has the correct loading port marked ‘Load’ and the correct thumb operated loading lever which has a hole for pellet gauge. The right side of the cylinder is marked ‘Abas Major’. The front of the cylinder has ‘.177’ calibre. The trigger guard lever is stamped ‘Abas’. The grip frame is stamped with serial number ‘916’ (of 2000). The pistol loads and fires correctly. The pistol comes with its associated custom-fit faux leather covered wood, baize-lined case. The case contains an oil applicator and a vintage Webley .177 pellet tin which contains a quantity of lead pellets. The case has a carry handle, hinged lid and clasp fasteners. The price for this very rare air pistol includes UK delivery. NB As a post 1939 air weapon the restrictions of the crime reduction act apply to the sale and delivery of this item. Sn 23484:24

SOLD SOLD (12/06) **RARE**Boxed 1946-1956 Schimel Arms Company USA GP-22 ‘Gas Pistol’ (Luger PO8 Type) .22 CO2 Air Pistol. Sn 23484:25 - 23484:25 The American made Schimel is said to be the first production air pistol to use CO2 capsules. Examination of the portion of the frame where the model number is situated will reveal that the “G” prefix to the model designation is stamped into the frame, whereas, the rest of the model designation, “P-22” is raised, and formed as part of the casting process. This process may at first seem curious, but when one considers that Schimel had initially planned to produce two different models, utilising the same frame, the rationale becomes clear. Those guns that were destined to become the CO2 versions were duly stamped with a letter “G” prefix, whilst the frames destined to become the multi-pump pneumatic version would have been stamped with an “A” prefix. Due to unknown circumstances, no AP-22 pistols were ever known to have been made. According to David Schimel, the Schimel gas pistol was manufactured from 1946 to 1956 by the Schimel Arms Company. The pistol uses an 8g CO2 capsule that is housed in the grip and has a rifled .22 calibre steel barrel. The serial number is ‘G5583’ which is to the left hand side above the grip. The cast zinc alloy frame (Mazak) has developed a nice patina. The black plastic grips are undamaged and intact. The pistol has new seals and fires with a strong action. The scarce original box is worn but intact one edge is loose but intact and the original loading and firing instructions are on inside the lid (illustrated in image 3). The price for this rare to find original boxed pistol includes UK delivery. NB As a post 1939 Air Weapon the restrictions of the Crime Reduction Act apply to the sale and delivery of this item.

**RARE**Cold War Era Post 1947 Czechoslovakian ‘tgf’ (Zbrojovka Brno), VZ-47 (German K98) 4.5mm BB Repeating (20 Shot) Bolt Action Military Training Air Rifle. Sn 23484:30 - 23484:30 Fashioned on the 98K Mauser, manufactured at the Czech Government Arsenal of "CESKA ZBROJOVKA," this is a Czech Army military training air pellet gun. Introduced in 1935 as the Vz.35 Air Rifle these were cheap to use, silent and ideal to break in raw recruits to move onto actual firearms. In 1947 the simplified Vz.47 was introduced, which was cheaper to produce, as it removed extra features like the bayonet lug, and utilized many more stamped steel parts. The machined parts of the Vz.35 were much more labour intensive. This example has a serial number of 06301 stamped on the top of the receiver under the 'tgf' which indicates contract for the DDR (East Germany) by Zbrojovka Brno, a maker of small arms, light artillery, and motor vehicles in Brno, Czechoslovakia. It also made other products and tools, such as typewriters and early computers. The rifle's overall length is 109cm and weighs just under 4kg. The stock is wood and has the usual use related marks. The rifle shoots 4.5mm calibre balls which are loaded via a folded sheet metal cover that just slides back to reveal the loading port, which holds 20 balls. To cock the rifle you rotate the bolt handle straight up where it interfaces with another part of a longer lever when pulled back. The bolt is pivoted at its base and rocks inside the action, pulling the powerful mainspring into full compression. The metalwork has a nice aged patina with no apparent damage. It is complete with its rear open adjustable sight and open front foresight. It cocks and fires with no issues and the swivelling safety catch on top of the action works as it should. The price for this rare piece 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. Sn 23484:30
