    Webley mk1

    You would notice if it was dieseling, even if it did not smoke on firing sniff the barrel; this also good advice when buying second hand power tools!

    Hi,

    A lovely example of my favourite Webley air pistol, especially in ,177 calibre and fitted with those lovely wood grips.

    If it has been refinished, the process obviously didn't affect the clarity of the stampings whch still look originally deep.

    Would you mind sharing the No (not clear in the picture) as it would be nice to get an idea of the Ser No ranges exported to the USA.

    Regards
    Brian

    I like the trigger - nice target touch.

    I noticed that trigger when I first looked at the gun. Small thing but I don’t see it on other pics I have looked at? Is it a possible Stoeger add or am I just seeing earlier pics than my gun?

    You certainly have a knack of finding some beauties.

    I have never seen a trigger like that on any UK Webleys, so must be a Stoeger thing.

    Maybe it's been tuned to shoot that high, not that difficult to strip and have a look and compare to one of your other Webleys

    I am a pretty novice mechanic so I think I’ll go by my old motto “don’t fix what’s not broken”

    Hi Steve, another good find, you are getting a very nice collection of prewar Steoger Webleys. but as l have said before you are the right side of the pond to pick these up at very good prices.

    Hello John,

    Hate those post-war Senior 'Curly' trigger blades.
