    l am not surprised, as l think the feedback that they got for doing a new Webley Service was not good selling at around £900 although it had a crome finish. for me it was a none starter. but the other rifles seemed intresing.

    I would like to have seen and handled the 'Service' rifle, but as said above, the suggested price tag was a bit steep when the original, admittedly with less power, (apart from my John Walker PCP conversion ) is available for a lot less money.
    I didn't realise Mr.Trim was involved in it's production.

    Graham trim, associated with a few guns that were never very sucessfull (inc the Wobley Paradigm, and the fugly "Black Fox")
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I was not very impressed. Ignore the unjustified title

    I remember you saying so at the time, Peter, but I would still have liked to see it for myself, particularly if they carried out some of the suggested modifications.

    At the time, I offered them free space at Kempton Armsfair to launch it and an opportunity for Traders like Protek to take orders as agents. There will not be any space for them now.......
