    Maybe in context to today. But I can remember the morning of my 11th birthday, getting up and coming down stairs. My dad said, "pull us that box out from behind the sofa will you". Guess what. It was a brand spanking Webley Hawk MkII. Collecting's all about nostalgia and that one memory keeps the Webley Hawk as my favourite air rifle.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    The MKII was streets ahead of the awfull MKIII.

    Personally I prefer the MKI, but the MKII was the more robust item.

    Happy times.I had a similar experience with a Diana G80.You never forget your first rifle and it will always be the best aswell.
