BSA Long Lee

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.

BSA Long Lee

Post by Dave 101 » Sat Mar 26, 2011 3:33 pm

:GBR:
Today I went to Bisley to pick up the Long Lee , the seller had traveled from Bristol to Bisley for the Spring Action Weekend ,a series of gallery rifle events , and I had travelled from Essex , so this rifle has travelled virtualy the width of the country today .
This is a BSA manufactured training rifle in .22 lr , its in very good condition considering its about a hundred years old , does any one know how these can be dated exactly . S/N 16** . On the knox form there is the BSA logo of the piled rifles which has been over stamped with RLR , any ideas what that is for , its not original as its a deeper stamp than the rest of the logo .
I will be at the range tommorow , I will get some photos up then .

My pal has one of the conversions for the RN Dave and i shot it alongside my No8 a few years back, I remember it shot extremely well but i am buggered if i can remember any details on it now.

I did take a few schnaps of it though.
