A collection of vintage and modern airguns.
A few weeks ago, a fellow airgun enthusiast asked me if I could service his friend’s BSA Scorpion air pistol. I thought sure, providing I can get the parts I will have a go. Of course it was also an opportunity to fully strip one down and write a service guide for anyone else that may need to repair or service their vintage BSA Scorpion.

A special case for a special air pistol! Considering the cost of these air pistols, you would expect Weihrauch to supply them with a custom foam lined case. Instead they are shipped in a cardboard box. Luckily, the owner of this air pistol stumbled across the custom foam lined cases on this website and requested one for this air pistol.

Here’s another recent addition to the collection. A 1973 Series 2 “Suncorite” Webley and Scott Junior air pistol.

What can I say! An absolutely fantastic example of one of Webley and Scott’s first air pistols. These air pistols are über rare on their own but this one is a complete package. Original box, original box of pellets, original spare breech seal with envelope, original sales leaflet and barrel cleaning brush. Continue reading “Webley and Scott MKI “Double Spring Clip” Air Pistol (1924)”
Finally! A superb example of the BSA Scorpion to add to the collection! This is the later model in .22 and is complete with case and all the paperwork and accessories. Continue reading “BSA Scorpion (Late Variant) (1985 to 1992)”
Here’s some peculiar targets. I assume they’re German as they came with the Crosman 38T “Target” air pistol from Germany. Very strange, especially the one with the wasps!
A new pistol for the collection arrived from Germany last week. It’s a Crosman 38T “Target” model. The “Target” model is .177 calibre as opposed to the early .22 38T that Crosman produced. It is identical in all ways except externally it has a plastic rear sight and a plastic cylinder. Internally it has an alloy valve body as opposed to the brass valve body of the early model.

Here’s an air pistol you are unlikely to see. It’s the Fenix manufactured by OJMAR (Ojanguren and Marcaide) in Spain from c. 1947 to c. 1958. Continue reading “OJMAR Fenix (c. 1947 to c. 1958)”
Here’s something a bit different for a change. I have had this FB Record Champion for quite some time. It’s what you would call a project pistol as it was non-functional with broken or missing parts. Continue reading “Restoration Project – FB Record Champion – Part 1”
