Identify AYA models

Recommended Posts

Can someone please explain how I can identify between the various AYA models. I'm pretty sure the one in question is either a No 1 or a No 2. Rough ideas on value would also be appreciated. See below for a pic.

 

Thanks in advance,

Oly

Hi Oly, I'm with brentus on this one I'd say model 25 sidelock does it have xxv on the rib if so going by "Holts" auction estimates £500 - £700 but it all depends on how good it is in the flesh so to speak how good are the bores? is it tight on face ? whats the finish like? ie does the barrel need blueing? all of these will affect it value. hope this help.

hi oly, this should show you .

 

Thanks for the pics, can't quite make it out, but does the gold on the top of the rib on the lefthand photo state XXV? The gun in question in my case has No.1 in gold at this location. I don't think that it's an AYA No.1, but that originally it was one of a pair - but we only have the one gun and I am not an expert in AYA's!

I email AYA as advised, they now want €49 per year to join the "card Club AYA Heritage 1915". All I wanted was a manufacture date for my No 4/53 - serial No 369613.

If that's the case, then it would appear that AYA have changed their strategy. In the past I and I know others, have emailed AYA (Carmen or Carmel, not sure who) and have received a response within the hour.
