Cadet Major.

Just after the war (WW 2), when I was about ten years old, my pal, Tony who was the same age,
was given a BSA Cadet Major by his father. Every Sunday morning we would go into nearby Juniper Valley and hunt squirrels. The airgun couldn't have been very powerful, in fact , I'd like to know if anyone could tell me, but just the same, Tony managed to bag several squirrels although
each required several shots to finish it off !! The next airgun I saw belonged to the man next door. It was an early BSA underlever like the Lincoln Jefferies. I later, about thirty years later, owned a 1905 Lincoln Jefferies BSA which was a lovely gun.
