    Webley Longbow Valuation

    Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

    I have a Birmingham made Webley longbow .22 like new condition fired just a few times.
    It has been stored for probably 13years pictures are not great but after some sort of value as needs to go to a good home and not stored in my cabinet for ever.

    Many Thanks.

    Is that a walnut stock? Hard to tell from the pics. But seems to have some figure to it.

    Generally, these days, in really excellent condition, I'd say beech £200-220, walnut £250-300. Or thereabouts.

    PS - wrong sub-forum. Perhaps a mod could move it to General or Collectables as he sees fit?

    Walnut versions have chequering on the pistol grip, I'd say it's refinished beech stock, but better pics would do it justice and add value.
    Nice things happen to nice people.

    They do, and I think you are right. Pics on my iPad were too blurry to be 100% sure.

    But it's not made in the Farterland

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Nope.

    I like Longbows, Superstars, Mark IIIs, early Airsporters and the Lincoln Jeffries rifles though, Pete.

    And the Longbow also has the Venom touch.
