BSA 'Sportsman Five' .22

Probably the most popular caliber firearm in most of the world. Many of us have more than one. They also are very collectible and still cheap to shoot.

Hey man,

Did you have two little tapped holes on the left side of the reciver? and btw i got my barrel sand blasted and i sanded it down to strait steel and so i'm gonna hopefully have a crack at reblueing it me self as it isnt worth the cost taking it too the gunsmith and re oiled the stock as well so i might post some pics of the finished product xD.

Hi,

Where did you get your scope mount and what model was it if you know?

Cheers.

I got the mount from a club member around 25 years ago and who has since passed away . It was made by Parker Hale in Australia which is all I know
