For the overseas Air Rifle Collectors and maybe some in the UK who have the following rifle.
Saxby & Palmer Number 4 Air Rifle
Cleaning out the 'mancave' I came across these operating instructions for an air rifle. The rifle was surrendered to the government when it became illegal to one this type of air weapon. however it instructions may be of use to someone in another country where the are allowed.
The Lee Enfield rifle - standard British and Commonwealth issue for almost 70 years - has earned a unique place in history. Whether on the battlefields of Flanders or in the jungles of Burma, the Lee Enfield .303 saw sterling-service and came through with colours flying.
This Number Four air rifle has been manufactured in England using deactivated components. It has been re-designed and re-engineered to fire only Saxby & Palmer air cartridges type 30/22.
In the 1980s, UK company Saxby-Palmer produced a number of replica air pistols and rifles which used self-contained air cartridges. However the system was cumbersome to use and in 1989 Saxby-Palmer went into liquidation. The rights to produce self-contained air cartridges were bought by the Silcock Brothers, trading as Brocock Limited in Birmingham. Brocock improved and perfected the Saxby-Palmer design and introduced replicas using the BACS (Brocock Air Cartridge System) in the early 1990s.
