lol ok thanks for clearing that up! Matt

Hi all, Just curious here - pigeon flys into my garden; I shoot it. Can I eat it!? Or do you only eat certain types of pigeon?! Is there any risk of disease? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere, or if I appear to be ignorant (I am!) Cheers Matt

^ That is what the Mk.7 manual I recieved said; apparently the stock is also checkered. Cheers, Matt

Right all, thanks for the help! I think we have come to the conclusion it is a Mk.6 with a funky little stock, so there we go! Ive mounted a Nikko Sterling Air King 2-7x32 on it now, so hopefully it will provide many years of trouble free plinking (touch wood!) Thanks for all your help, Matt

Hmm well mine says WE on it; how disappointing! It still doesnt explain the crazy stock though!

Ah right, probably a good idea! The more I do image searches, the more the Mk.6 doesnt seem to have a cheek piece...or comb...or whatever its called, whereas mine does.... Apologies if I have done this incorrectly, I dont know how to upload pics on this forum! The barrel just says BSA Guns Ltd. England, then the BSA logo - further down near the scope mount it says BSA Meteor. Thanks in advance guys Matt

Hi guys, Right! Went down the shop today to get myself an air rifle whilst the FAC comes through, basically just for plinking. The BSA Meteor seemed to be a universally acclaimed little thing for the money, so off i popped to purchase one. The rifle was taken off the rack and shoved in a box, along with the manual. Now, when I got home and looked at the manual, it said Mk.7 on it, and was claiming to be a full powered air rifle. However, beceause the rifle didnt come ready boxed, but was instead pulled off the shelf, im not sure if I have a Mk.7 or a Mk.6. Is there anyway to tell without going down to the shop again and asking them?! Thanks in advance guys, Matt
