I'm looking at a 1943 BSA 4T with an "AV" serial number and a No32 Mk1 scope. Scope number is not on the butt.
It comes in a colour Blue 4T transit box, (was apparently a RAF issue 4T), sling, scope adjusting tool, scope tin, spotting scope & spotting scope case
Price is 'acceptable'
Its been in the same hands for the last 10 years, and belonged to a friend of his for 10 years before that, so, it should pre-date all of the 4T shenanigans that have been going on with 4Ts.
Questions -
what markings would a 1943 4T DEFINATELY have ?
what markings MAY it have ?
any hints or tips to recognise problems / questionable areas.
Never thought I'd be in a position to own a 4T so whilst I've read the 100s of postings on them (puts the fear of God into you !!!!) I've never really absorbed the information.
Basically - looking for the idiots guide to buying a 4TInformation
