This Christmas I treated myself...

I bought a Walther LGV .177 with Tyrolean walnut stock and a BSA pre-war under-lever in .22 . I have wanted examples of each of these rifles for a few years. When a collector in Ontario, Canada, decided to sell-off his collection I decided it was time to act. Fortunately, my wife was in agreement and also suggested I purchase a Webley Nemesis that I had my eye on from another vendor. I best keep this wife.
The BSA is unusual in that it has a forward swept trigger guard with some engraving. The vendor suggested it might be a quasi-experimental model. No where on it is it actually stamped BSA, except on the front sight hood. I will post on Garvin's BSA web site in hopes someone may be able to provide more information.
