That they are not going a head with it basically cause it's not good enough.

actually now that you mention it the whole thing did look a bit shoody, I'd still like one just for the novelty value though!

Why don't they improve it then, so that it IS good enough <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_confused.gif" alt="Confused" width="15" height="22"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_confused.gif" alt="Confused" width="15" height="22"><!--graemlin:--> <img src="http://jsramsbottom.co.uk/bbs/e/icon_confused.gif" alt="Confused" width="15" height="22"><!--graemlin:-->

I would of thought it would of been a good idea to research the quality issues before announing that they were planning to sell it. Therefore there are not dispointed people who wanted one.

But Webley were just going to sell it in the UK, so in theory if you really wanted one you could purchase one from somewhere else, i wonder who they are made by.

Is it a long-barrelled Nemesis? It is, isn't it? If it is as ugly as the Nemesis then no, they shouldn't try to sell it without a makeover.

I think the pneumatic rifles are made by an Italian firm called Bruni....

I think the Nemesis looks great! Air pistols are often a bit aesthetically challenged, but I think that the Nemesis is one of the better looking ones. I liked my Nemesis so much that I used a Nemesis body for my high-powered laser-tag pistol, and also know someone else who payed me a large amount of money to build her a laser-tag gun in a Nemesis body too, as she liked mine so much.... Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all. I think that the HW45 is ugly compared the the Nemesis.

If my memory proves reliable for once, Webley were going to buy it in not make it themselves which would be why they could not “just sort it�.

I can see were Webley are coming from, all there rifles on their current line up either good or very good and all of them are finished to a high standard.

I’m sorry it wont be around, the idea look like a lot of fun. Probably not very powerful but a take-down pinker would be a “good to have� and would fit in a sports bag.

ONLY £63!!!!!

Bruni are the company who make the very cool blank firers!

I want one even if it is crap!

Hmmm .... looks like the trigger is a bit difficult to get at, the stock is in the way of a normal hand position. You can't argue with £63 for a budget chuckaway plinker though. I wonder what it would do with a tweak?

Everyone on the BBS should get one and we can form a new indoor 25 yard league, shooting polo mints against the clock with this standardised 'tool'.

I think that the folding stock might make it a pistol though, and if it is over 6ft/lbs, a deadly Section 5 FAC weapon as used by Saddam, Bin Laden and evil terrorists across the globe as the new silent successor to the AK assualt rifle.

But but but .... Is that the case? What about the long-barrelled revolvers, I thought a rifle had to be of a certain length to be a rifle and a pistol was anything with less than a certain overall length?

Is the law different for airguns?
