    A 'family' gathering!! (of Webbos!)..

    Hi all

    I took a couple of pics of the Webley mk1/2/3 together..

    I was wondering whether to photograph them with an early mk3 that I have with the two stage trigger but it's not as nice as the later one


    The 'get together'..


    Pic 1

    Pic 2

    Mk1 & 2

    T'uther side

    The ball is missing from the mk2 bolt, someone offered me one but I accidentally deleted the message and didn't have a clue who it was so i'm going to have to make one on my lathe I reckon



    Cheers, John

    How did you get the stocks to shine like that, Wickes cheapo polyurethane varnish, or are they replacements by Crosman?

    Nice set of Webleys!
