jamesq Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I have just bought an old bsa comet 177 for my seven year old son to use its in good condition, but im going to tru oil the stock but ive noticed the barrel is been browned rather than blued, so my question is can anybody help with the age of this gun? the serial number i found on the gun just above the trigger the stamp reads B66772 Thanks Jamesq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
