We are enthusiasts. Only Air Arms keep manufacturing records. I believe they made about 200 around 2005 in sporter stock and only a dozen or so in thumbhole. They had a deluxe blueing. The information is as good as Google can find.

Air Arms produced the custom range around 2006/7. They were blued better and commanded a higher price. Its not clear how many were made as they were basically an upgrade.
It proved that the bluing on the standard rifles needed looking at and that a good quality over all standard was the way forward.
I believe they did a polished bolt aswell.
More information would be easily obtained by ringing AA with the serial number.

Having emailed air arms they have confirmed the rifle was manafactured in 2006 with a left handed csr thumbhole stock (not sure what the csr stands for)it now has a right handed thumbhole stock fitted.the rifle has a silver bolt,trigger guard and barrel flute but air arms are unable to confirm if it left there factory with these.
