*NAZI HITLER YOUTH CONNECTIONS* RARE*1930’s German Venus Waffenwerk Model Mars 100 Type (Small Form K98k) 4.4mm BB Lead Balls Only Bolt Action Multi Shot Military Training Air Rifle. Sn 23607 - 23607 This is a nice example of one of many Pellet Air Rifles used for training during the Pre-WWII Era in Germany, designed by the Oscar Will von Mars Repetier-Luftgewehr (Repeating Air Rifle) Company. These were available in two sizes, the smaller "MARS 100" and full size "MARS 115". The Mars pellet rifles closely resemble a scaled-down Mauser Model 98k, which would become Germany’s standard-issue Bolt-Action rifle in 1935. It would then be the standard German infantry service rifle throughout WWII. The Mars company went out of business after World War II, as with many other companies. The military appearance was purposely built to mimic the aesthetics of Germany’s standard-issue military service rifle, the Mauser K98k but in smaller form and were most notably used by Nazi Hitler Youth groups for training to teach basic marksmanship, safe gun handling and bolt-action manipulation before moving on to full bore firearms. Although there are no visible German maker marks or MARS designation on this example, it has similar features to the MARS 100 model. It has a full-length wooden stock and a Mauser-style wing safety catch at the rear of the bolt. Unlike standard break-barrel spring guns, these rifles use a unique bolt-action cocking system. It is gravity fed from an internal magazine & fires 4.4mm lead round balls (No. 4 lead balls only, not for steel BBs or traditional shaped pellets, as steel will cause jams and could cause internal damage). Because of their direct connection to WW2 history, surviving models are sought after by militaria and vintage airgun collectors. Our example is in excellent condition with all original un-damaged metal work and wood. It has a block and blade foresight, adjustable rear sight, steel butt, cleaning rod, forward sling bar & shoulder stock slotted for sling with sling lug. The metal work and wood have ‘3 Crowns’ inspection marks similar to Swedish inspection marks ( Sweden bought many K98 rifles from Germany but we cannot find any record of Sweden using K98 type air gun military trainers). The rifle is serial number ‘161’ and has indistinct numbers impressed in the wood (all illustrated). The rifle cocks and fires crisply. The price for this rare, Nazi era military training rifle includes UK delivery. Sn 23607 £875.00 |

Sn 22446 - 22446 This is an original example of the English Webley Bentley Wedge Frame type double-action only percussion revolver, as produced C 1852. The English wedge frame design popular in the period on Colt USA revolvers is attributed to Birmingham gun maker Philip Webley, although Webley himself seemed to have manufactured very few of the guns.

**SCARCE IN THE UK**MINT**1949-1952 USA Sheridan Products Inc C- Series "Silver Streak" Bolt Action Loading, Pneumatic Pump Action .20 Calibre (5mm) Single Shot Air Rifle. AI 600 - AI 600 Sheridan Products Inc. was formed to produce Pneumatic Air Pellet Rifles with production beginning in March 1947. The company name Sheridan was reputedly in honour of the Civil War's General Philip Sheridan. The Sheridan Model C "Streak" was introduced in 1949. This is the model that ushered Sheridan Products Inc. into profitability. The Model C Silver and Blue Streaks are the pellet rifles that Sheridan is primarily known for. Sheridan manufactured the Model C Streaks for 27 years before being bought out by the Benjamin Air Rifle company in 1976 and ending the original run of Sheridan produced Streaks. Model C (Streak) (1949–1976) air rifles are well constructed Airguns using quality materials. They utilized walnut stocks, aluminium receiver, bronze barrel and pump tube. A different valve mechanism was used in the Model C than in the previous Model A and B. It was dubbed the "Streaks" with the Silver Streak being first with its Nickel finish, followed by Blue Streak in a black oxide finish in 1952. The only difference between the two Streaks is the finish. Sheridan Products Inc was acquired by its competitor, the Benjamin Air Rifle Company in 1977, thus ending the original line of Sheridan Model C's in 1976. Benjamin Air Rifle Company continued producing Model C's until 1992 when the company was purchased by competitor Crosman Corporation. Changes to the design of the Model C were made by both Benjamin and Crosman. Sheridan C- Series ‘Silver Streak’ air rifles are scarce to find in the UK. This near mint Sheridan Silver Streak air rifle has all of its original nickel finish and the woodwork is undamaged. The rifle is 36 ½” overall length and has a blade fore sight, iron rear sight & adjustable Williams rear sight. The frame is stamped with Sheridan Inc markings, together with 5mm (.20 calibre) detail and serial number ‘507088’. It is bolt action loading and has the correct safety catch feature. The hinged fore stock is pumped repeatedly to fully charge the rifle for a single shot. The rifle’s loading and firing actions work crisply. The price includes UK delivery.
