​​​​​BSA Ralock .22RF

​​​​​BSA Ralock. 
  BSA or Birmingham Small Arms brought the Ralock rifle to the scene in 1947—an entirely consumer-focused rifle that was a blend of top-notch quality, unique design, and a dash of machine gun inspiration. The Ralock aimed to elbow its way into the semi-automatic .22 rimfire rifle market.The T model chambered in 22LR which was produced from 1949 to mid-1951. With only 5,696 rifles in total.The BSA Ralock featured a semi-automatic blow-back hammerless breech block design. 
 The action design features a blow-back breech block shaped like a nearly quarter-circle segment. This block pivots at its base and gets locked back, simultaneously cocking the rifle, when the integrated trigger guard and underlever are pulled down. This action also reveals a compartment beneath the rifle where the fired empty cases are stored. 
 This a take down by rotating the lever on top of the action and pulling the barrel forward. A very rare and unique firearm.  $1800
