Webley Eclipse - Is this true ?

[Rickenbacker]

Far from it. I think the Omega is a lovely rifle http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Airs...ml?sort=6&o=77 (3 Omegas - get it?) and the Longbow another good un. It may have been noticed that I am not a fan of Webley pistols.

Ahh... I have seen your Webley pistol door-stop, so I wrongly imagined you might i.e. lash together a couple of Service rifles to use as a washing line pole.

I would do but have you seen the (inflated) price for a Service which is basically just an over grown pistol which, I admit, does have many uses - http://smg.photobucket.com/user/Airs...l?sort=6&o=134

I realise that I gave a poor example, ref the piston going in roughly the opposite direction to the pellets.

Patriot fence posts?

Hi Ian, what about the Webley Vulcan? What do you think of them. Only asking because a school pal had one...still has he's a proper hoarder

Wobbly Webley with no breech bolt, just a pin, plus awful trigger.

The Omega is a super rifle because they did the decent thing and copied the best bits of the excellent Anschutz 335 and Feinwerkbau Sport. Too late though.

The Vulcan was just an upgraded Hawk Mk III with a sexy name. Powerful though.

Cheers 'Hs'. Saved my typing finger.

According to the maccari website, HW's tend to have a great variety in piston seal fit. From tight to sloppy.
And they do well, so why shouldnt the eclipse?
Ok, difference could be, HWseal can be sloppy fit áll the time, undependant of weather.
Would like to see some testresults on the Eclipse on this subject. Very interesting. Never though about it this way.
