    So you like a webley or 2 then, like the 240's
    Fancy shooting your air pistols & rifles a bit more, then guy's & gal's come visit us at the
    UBC for loads of fun competitions for all types of air pistols and rifles.

    I'd be delighted to own even one Webley. Well, some day...

    Pistols

    Hi John

    Nice collection you have there, is the two tone 240 the original finish or has it been polished?

    Regards

    Robin.

    'Fraid not


    It was polished by the previous owner (shame though )


    I'm getting this urge to sell my rifles and see if i can buy one example of every type of Webley pistol except the Turkish one....

    I don't even have a Mk1 yet

    It becomes addictive - I now have 2 x Mark 1 (1920's straight grip) Mark 1 (slant grip) 1930's, 2 Seniors (slant grip) 2 Juniors - pre and post war, 2 Premiers, a Tempest, Typhoon (old and new) Hurricane and a Nemesis.

    I am still after a Mark 2 Target pistol, Premier and Junior Mark 2 versions and a straight grip Senior.

    Plus I want one version of of every Premier - they were stamped A to F and I have an A and an E.

    Obsessive - me - nah ?

    I have to agree, the pistols will stay with me 'til they're nailing me lid on!! i think most of the rifles will be going to new homes though....
