The History of BSA

BSA, which is an acronym for Birmingham Small Arms Company Ltd, was established in 1861 with the primary aim of manufacturing firearms.

The company constituted a substantial British industrial complex involved in the production of various products which included military and sporting firearms, bicycles, motorcycles, automotive vehicles, steel, iron castings, manual and power tools, machine tools, etc. During World War 1, BSA manufactured 1.5 million rifles, 145 Lewis machine guns, motorcycles, the first-ever folding bicycle, machine tools, jigs, gauges, aero components, gun locks, shells and fuses. Daimler, acquired by BSA in 1910, additionally produced staff cars, ambulances and commercial vehicles.

During WWII, BSA was the primary factory producing rifles in the UK, along with .303 Browning machine guns. Post-Dunkirk, production was increased, despite bombing raids disrupting operations. The company also manufactured motorcycles and bicycles for military use during that time. With the onset of the Blitz, BSA began dispersed production across Britain to ensure continuity. They produced a significant volume of military equipment during the war, including over 1.25 million Lee-Enfield .303 rifles, over 400,000 Sten sub-machine guns, and nearly 500,000 Browning machine guns.

In 1953, BSA acquired Triumph Engineering, subsequently establishing BSA Motorcycles Ltd. This propelled the company to become the biggest motorcycle producer worldwide during the 1950s. Over the years, BSA also introduced a variety of civilian firearms, including the 1906 War Office pattern rifle, the Sportsman series of .22 Long Rifle bolt-action rifles, several .22lr target rifles with Martini action, and the Ralock and Armatic semi-automatic .22lr rifles.

Despite its past successes, BSA Group reported a substantial trading loss in 1971. Rescue efforts fell short due to production issues, failing to capture the domestic and American markets. By year-end, the company was nearing bankruptcy. By the summer of 1973, after 63 years of continuous production, BSA's operations came to a sudden stop.

In 1986, a section of the BSA Company was bought by the Gamo Group, a Spanish air rifle maker. Now known as BSA Guns Ltd, the company has shifted from making military weapons to producing and globally exporting air rifles, hunting rifles, and sporting guns. Another part of the company partnered with Andover Norton International in 1991, concentrating on motorcycle spare parts. By 1994, it had been taken over by the BSA Regal Group, which sustained the parts business and launched limited-edition, retro-styled bikes.

BSA Repetierer Rifle Review

Introduced in 1972, the BSA Repetierer, also often referred to as the BSA CF2, is a bolt-action hunting rifle inspired by the Remington 700. The rifle’s design is simple - it is equipped with a 2-position safety lever which is positioned on the left side of the receiver, locking the bolt and disengaging the sear when activated. The models came either with a 4- or 5-round fixed magazine housed under a steel floorplate. Different stock designs were available for the BSA Repetierer. Variations spanned from an 'American' design featuring a Monte Carlo comb, a 'European' design with a linear comb, to a 'Stutzen' style. The stocks differed in wood type, quality, color, end caps, fillers, and the pattern of checkering.

Barrels used in the BSA Repetierer were of two main lengths: 609 mm (24 inches) for the standard rifle, and 508 mm (20 inches) for the fully stocked 'Stutzen' carbine variant. Depending on the specific model, either standard-weight or heavy barrels were used. Some models came with iron sights pre-installed, with a 'standard' or adjustable 'Williams' ramp style for the rear sight, and a bead front sight safeguarded by a spring steel shroud; however, several versions did not feature sights at all.

In terms of compatibility, the top portion of the action aligns with the long action Remington 700's profile and dimensions, enabling interchangeability with all standard scope mounts that fit onto Remington 700 LA. The triggers, adjustable for the weight of the pull, were available in double-set or single-set versions. The bolt features two large locking lugs interfacing with the action's housing and a single extractor claw.
