moxy 617 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 I have acquired a few air rifles and an air pistol that are not of any use to me. So rather than them be destroyed they may be of some use to someone? As you can see from the picture the previous owner was not very mentally stable and in no position to own a set of tiddlywinks let alone an airgun collection. There is nothing of great value in and amongst these but may be of use for parts, a restoration project or just a garden plinker for a young one? All the rifles and the pistol work although to what power I don't know as I have not had them over the chrono, but they all are within the legal limit and have been tested by the police. I am asking a small but fair donation for each one plus postage costs. The proceeds will be donated to the Walking with the wounded charity via the Theoben rapid forum. Admin from the forum will confirm they have received the donation. Collection can also be arranged from Keighley, west Yorkshire. They are listed as follows; Unbranded Chinese break barrel in .22 ( cheap as chips but a garden plinker non the least ). I will strip and sand the bloody awful stock. SMK mod XT53 Air pistol .22 SMK 15 air rifle .177. Ideal little garden gun for a young one. Gone to AndyH Webley Victor .22. Serial no; 017464. Rough as a dog, Rusting on metal work but in working order. Stock in reasonable fettle, Restoration project or spare parts. SMK XS78 co2 .22. Lets not even get in to what happened with the stock!!!! Working order but again restoration or parts. Gone to AndyH No stunners I know but they must be of value or use to someone. Over 18's only Im not sure as to what the postage costs will be? so if anyone can recommend a service and idea of price I would be grateful. Thanks Quote Link to post
AndyH 52 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 The SMK 15 .177 would be brilliant if it's still going. I help run the Shooting Club at my Scouts, but our guns are getting knackered now & we are struggling to replace them. Oh, and I'll take the XS78 too, I need a project PM me how much for P&P, and your suggested donation 1 Quote Link to post

I'm not sure on postage costs yet but as one of the rifles will be used for the scouts I will say £25 plus the postage for the two? Quote Link to post

I have been distracted with other things and haven't updated the thread. Unfortunately Andyfr1968 has made a donation of £15 for the webley and the pistol. Apologies again and thanks for your offer Only the cheap Chinese springer left but I may stick a fiver in myself and throw it in the bin!!

WhiteRabbit 112 Posted March 15, 2014 Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 It's a shame he/she has ruined it for anyone else to use. Seriously, what use is that? I wouldn't even trust them with tiddlywinks, not even the ones out of Christmas crackers White Quote Link to post
