Just for fun comparison of Webleys first deluxe pistol to their last (blued)

[45flint]

New to Webley collecting early this year I purchased my first blued Webley pistol which happened to be a Premier series E. It was the only blued Webley at my first local Airgun show. Later read that this was basically the last of the blued Webleys produced. Last week I bought a Webley Mark II Target. Not the first Webley pistol but the first deluxe one comparable to the Premier. 1926? vs 1974? Fun in a sense to have bookends to Webley blued pistol production.

Observations:
1. The Premier is noticeably heavier, I think mainly the slant grip takes much more metal, but does make the feel modern and about perfect.
2. Tube profile look is exactly the same but Premier is slightly larger both in length and diameter.
3. No safety on the Premier, ironically a must for current sales.
4. Milled trigger vs sinter.
5. Refinement to cocking linkages makes cocking much easier with the Premier.
6. Totally different end caps on both ends of the cylinder.
7. Funny to me sights that were seemingly identical, you would think this would have been refined?
8. Premier 475 fps vs 405 fps, with 7 grain Hobbys.
9. Shootout between the two scheduled for spring.

Now I just have to fill in all the Models between these two! Not enough time I fear. Lol
