NEW SEAL FITTED, SHOOTS LOVELY.
REAR SIGHT FITTED BUT THE UP/DOWNER LOOKS HOME MADE?
THERE IS NO THREAD INSIDE TO RAISE OR LOWER IT.
I DON'T THINK ITS BEEN PAINTED, BLUEING LOOKS ORIGINAL, SCRATCHED ON BARREL, LESS SO ON CYLINDER.
NO CRACKS OR SPLITS IN WOOD WORK,
THE SCRATCHES ARE NOT SPLITS..
STOCK COULD DO WITH REFINISHING.
The rifle's serial number ‘TA 04238'
HISTORY:
Birmingham Small Arms introduced the Meteor Air rifle in 1959. MK 1 rifles were produced until 1962 when the MK II model was introduced. MK II production continued until 1968.
The small frame rifle is 41 ½” overall with an 18" barrel.
It has a block and blade fore sight. The top of the adjustable rear sight is stamped with the BSA piled arms logo and the top of the cylinder forward of its 2 raised scope mounts is crisply marked 'BSA Meteor' with stylised arrow logo.
The rifle's serial number ‘TA 04238' is stamped on the underside of the barrel block. The 'TA' prefix serial number dates the rifle to between 1962 and 1966.
The top of the barrel is stamped ‘BSA Guns Ltd England’ together with ‘.22 Cal’ and BSA piled arms logo.
The barrel's bore is clean with crisp rifling and it cocks and fires as it should with a strong spring action.
