    The Vulcan was the second rifle I bought after a super Meteor as well ,my Vulcan accounted for many rats, tin cans and glass bottles over the refuse dump that we used to shoot over.
    I also have a nice Omega that I haven't shot for a while.

    The best webley ever made has to be the
    Mark 1 rifle without it the others would never have existed. It was the first and the best
    .
