Hi,new member here looking for a bit of advice. I recently inherited a couple of air guns,and one in particular i'm a bit puzzled about. I know it's an airsporter, and after doing some research i think it's an airsporter mark 1.

This would make it about 60 years old,but i can't really believe it's that old because it's condition is near mint. The other issue is that there are absolutely no identification marks on the gun whatsoever-not bsa,airsporter,not even a serial number.i even took the action out of the stock but there's nothing. Has anybody got any ideas as it's really puzzling me. I would post some pics but i'm not sure how to. Hiya Mitch, and a very warm welcome to Planet Airgun.

Yes, a few pics would be helpful in making an identification if you could please. A bit of a descriptive for ya to be going on with in the meantime though.is that the Mk1 Airsporter had a two piece stock that was glued together at the pistol grip, just above the trigger. The only differences between a Mk1 and a Mk2 is the later has a 'flip-up' rearsight (my memory might be wonky though, and it's the other way around). I'll check in my Hiller book later to see if there's any other distinguishing info that might be helpful.

Hi Mitch, the Mk1s and the Mk2s had the serial numbers stamped in front of the trigger guard. The stocks on both the mk1s and 2s were composite, made of three pieces, however there were some special one off's that had a one piece stock I believe manufactured by a spanish company. (the stocks) The stocks had no rubber recoil pad fitted as in later variants. Download serial number syswin 34. Most Mk1's had no method of attaching a scope (no rails) although there were a few later ones and those that were modified by owners/gunsmiths.
