Marcus Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Dont know much about the gun itself, but HDAV on here (also in S Wales) had one for sale a little while back. Not sure if its still for sale but it was a nice example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 yer only want it for rough shooting and 150 for that seams to be a low price looking on gun trader they are asking 200 plus only seen one for 145 Midland are either traditional Birmingham made guns £££ or Sabatti actioned guns imported from italy for midland (bought by Parker Hale), Double trigger guns £150-200 single trigger ejectors are £250-£300 depends on the condition and the style. Ther eare soem cheap turkish guns bearing the midland name imported by mid wales shooting centre who bought the name more recently. 502 models are the Italian made ones like the one i had (single trigger ejector) good strong cross bolt actions should last for years if kept clean....
