We seem to have developed of late a group of folks who attempt to gloss over this unfortunate reality with some, not all, of the Spanish guns that were exported, back in the day. As if the problems were rumors or speculation.

They were, and, are, not. Make note of it.

Good luck with the new to you BSA. They carry a reputation of excellent, if often plain, English guns on this side of the pond.

Best,
Ted
