Webley Tracker & BSA mercury challenger both .22

[spike mk2]

Hi did have these in the for sale section but as was unsure of price they must have been removed, these are my dads rifles both work as they should and are in good condition for there age I am hoping for a friend coming to view them who I hope will have an idea of there value. Any advice would be appreciated. I do have these in the wanted - swap section with a picture can send more if needed.
Thanks S

Hi Spike,

Yep, your sales thread was deleted because you must state prices on a 'for sale' thread.

If you want a valuation, why not make this a valuation thread? (I can edit the thread title for you if you want), then when you have a price in mind, start another sales thread in sales with your picture?

I've left your swap thread there just for now (for the picture), but you need to state what you want to swap for, otherwise another mod will likely come along and delete that as well.

Not being difficult mate, it's just how the forum works.

Both collectible and both still very usable .
What version is the Tracker ? Beech or Walnut DeLuxe ( or black / cammo ? ) .
This can make a difference as can condition . Calibre can make a difference , with .22 more common .
Have less experience with the BSA Mercury Magnum , very desirable to me but the reality is this was superceded by later BSA's along the same lines . Hence today many will still see BSA break barrel and buy a Lightning or earlier Supersport . But to some that like the styling , the even earlier kit is worthy of attention and not seen that often . Again condition / stockwork condition ?

Just drifted over the swops section and see your thread and image .
Nice guns , in great condition , well looked after .

Tracker - with its rearsight intact and a PH steel silencer - although the woodwork looks beech , it is a very nice piece of beech .
BSA - stunning classic break barrel , beech stock in the classy BSA walnut look finish , with its rearsight intact ( and possibly foresight ? ) .
Old scopes do nowt for me so tend not to put real value on them but do know Simmonds are liked .

Values are opinions not shared by everyone , especially here .
Tracker £200
BSA £225 +/- dep on scope ( but if the scope is really desirable as a period piece then + and perhaps + a bit again .

Some may counter these values with " I paid only £60 for mine " which can actually happen for these older period guns , but remember they wouldn't sell any of them for that .

A few close up photo's would help, so we can see condition of stock, bluing and any signs of rust, otherwise it's guess work low end £80 top end £200ish

i'd say £180 for the tracker, £225 for the bsa & sell the scope seperatly for £30.

Silencer looks like a Webley Pro System one rather than P-H.
If you have both the original foresight, barrel weight and the 'Webley' cover plate that would help the value quite a lot, but as it stands I'd say the £150-160 are closer estimates if the power is still good (they commonly ran about 9 or so ft/lbs and 10.5 ft/lbs at best).

Hi just to acknowledge I have read your threads guys thanks am waiting on a few replies through pm to quickly answer the rifles come with what you see in the pics there is a scope with one piece mount but its quite rough hence why its not in the pic which I now know is a Optima Moonlighter 3x9x45mm an a few other bits an bobs that can go to. Cheer again for all the help an opinions S
