    Exclamation pistol for auction on the Bay of evil....

    Has anyone seen the webley tempest up for ayction on Fleabay??, there's no reference to it being a gun in the title just Webley tempest

    for anyone that may be interested, the item# is270448785201

    PS, the sale is nothing to do with me and i have no connection to the person that's breaking the rules on fleabay

    He won't get away with it for long. The reporting pixies will get him.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    it's a shame too

    i recall when airguns could be sold on fleabay, one day i searched for webley junior with no results, then senior, ditto then premier etc etc...

    it dawned on me a couple of days later that there were no airguns for auction
    yup- that's me, three yards slower than treacle

    it was a crying shame when they banned the sales
