don't panic, it sold very fast for a fixed price of 5600 euro but you can still see the auction site

A nice .303 sporting martini just sold today for $2400 plus commission. Condition was particularly nice, especially the wood. Price was about $800 over where I thought it would end. I've wanted a 303 or 450 sporting martini for a while now. Missed a couple at Holts. I guess I need to calibrate my spending expectations.

https://bid.paauctioncenter.com/ui/auctions/107930/13439553

Description:
Single shot martini style lever action rifle. Features, Front fixed and rear Tangent adjustable sight with (2) folding leaves, Blued finish, Case hardened hammer and lever, Fine checkered wooden pistol grip stock and forend with black nose cap, Sling mounts, Metal trapdoor butt plate, Barrel length, 24". SN:015418. Condition: Very Good. Excellent mirror bore and strong action with great rifling, All metal retains 85% original blued with usual light wear at areas and turning to patina, Stock and forend are solid free of cracks and breaks with light handling marks throughout, Good clean working trapdoor butt plate with no contents inside.

I have an eye open for vintage (pre 1900) airguns and just now when I wait very nervous for the end of such an auction two other guns came into auction in sweden

one is a Kurbelspanner - crank cocking action(?) by G.Noack in Berlin
https://auctionet.com/de/3282604-ein-deu...e-halfte-des-19














the crank is missing like on most guns from this time

because of the local Berlin connection I would bid on this if there was not the other option now

second is a Hebelspanner - lever cocking action
https://auctionet.com/de/3282476-luftgewehr-zweite-halfte-des-19-jahrhunderts















such vintage airguns are very hard to find, they were offer up to 1900 but then driven out of the market by the new Will Bügelspanner - triggerguard cocking action








you see its basically the same gun but more comfortable than the old

cross your fingers that I have a new vintage airgun in two weeks

      #382075 - 21/01/24 08:31 PM

actually the action is very simple - the best way to make an action long lasting

I repair common airguns for friends but using only available parts you can buy. never remake a leather bucket but its not rocket science. You cut out the part, make it soft with water, then bring it in form with home made tools and let it dry.
to be true the Oskar Will airgun get a new leather bucket by my gunmaker.
I dont want to break anything on such a valuable airgun.

Nice Martini DoubleD!
Cool lever on that old girl, would it still have the latching arrangement or just hold shut anyway?

The leather 'bucket/washer' is not difficult to make. My father replaced the one on my brother's Slavia air rifle when we were kids. Shot that gun a LOT.
By the time we were teenagers, there were no sights on it???? No idea why, but we still had no trouble shooting beer bottle caps in the window (no glass) of the horse barn when relatives were over for an evening, in the summer.
Seems that pellet rifle ALWAYS made a showing and NONE of the adults could learn to shoot it well due to the lack of sights. They (especially my RCMP uncle) marveled we were so good with it.
Upon questioning, telling them to simply look at the bottle cap over the barrel didn't help. LOL Instinctive shooting is even more accurate with a rifle, compared to a bow.
Can you tell, I still love shooting air rifles.
That trigger guard lever .25 cal is super!! I have 4 of them, all PCP.

I have several similar, but no where near as nice.

I really liked the rifle but didn't bid enough. I'm a bit awash in small bore martinis but have nothing larger than a 300 Sherwood. Some day when I stop putting myself in the poorhouse for double rifles I will rectify that.
