    Hi Ken - I don't want to rub your nose in it, but I picked up an absolute minter on saturday (from 'Stuart' on here).

    Not a mark on it, and the original open sights to boot - I'm well chuffed.

    Try looking back through the old 'for sale' threads for guns that didn't sell - that's how I found this one.

    All the best,
    Ken

    What calibre. I'm looking for a complete minter .177. Might have a spare .22 as I have two.

    Ken, we have messaged. I love .177 but the Omega makes a great .22 because its ergonomics are so very good. .22's are easier to find too it seems. Just getting hold of one is hard enough; anyone would think it was a Venom FWB Sport!

    ... I agree, as although I also like .177 best these days, I find the Omega is superb in .22, truly superb, too.

    Wink Webley Omega Wanted

    I can see I am not going to get any sympathy here. To console myself I have just fitted a period Original Model 13 scope to my lovely condition Original 45 which I obtained from a very nice gentleman from Wales. Ha! We laugh in the face of Webley Omega owners (and mods that have a cabinet full)
