    You need to show a picture of the other - right hand - side, as that is the side that so often gets a rust/wear line along the centre.

    Good news is, it's not a MkII, so muchmore desireable. £250, absolute minimum. And that hurts because I'd love it, but can't afford it.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    What a superb collectible in great order.

    If the right hand side is as good as the left, I would say £300 wouldn't be too much, as everything is in such good order.

    They will never make guns using this firearms quality of manufacture again for the mass market, so as such they are a really sort after collectible in this fine condition.

    Hello,

    It's a four pin Premier, so made before 1966. There should be an upper case letter stamped on the left hand side of the frame near the trigger guard.

    The A Series started in 1964 and I believe the D Series (1966 -1968) was the first five pin Premier with the fifth pin securing a trigger stop.

    Your Premier will probably be stamped either A or B.

    You still haven't shown a picture of the right hand side to show it has or hasn't got a 'box mark'.

    That is why I specifically asked the question.
    Unfortunately that often happens when a pistol has been left in a box for long periods, particularly if in a damp atmosphere, such as a garage or shed. The Webley box material acts as a very efficient moisture absorption agent.
    In my opinion, your asking price is at least £100 too high because of the rust pitting.

    It's a shame about the pitting as it should be worth around the £250 mark if 100%. with the box being in very good condition + the pellets and extra barrel as well.
    but quite a bit less now.
