    They look nice.

    Power and accuracy is totally another thing.

    Low power in need of a refurb £80. Power around 10 ft/lb even after refurb. A deluxe model will fetch a bit more as long as the stock is salvageable. Complete with iron sights, a little bit more as well as the iron sights usually make good money on the bay. Pics would give a better idea.

    You've made the right decision there Simon. Odd little rifle the tracker. I can't see why the seem to command the money they do.
    I wouldn't go near one except a minter and even then I wouldn't use it.

    Because a lot of guys who are now 40-55 years old wanted one when they were teenagers, but never got one.

    I have a very nicely preserved Deluxe. For exactly that "inner 14 year-old" reason.

    This is why i like them^^^^^ My dad picked up a secondhand one of these last year, and i also think its under powered and needs looking at? so ive been watching this tread for info too. How do you get the front end muzzle break off them? and can a real silencer can be added instead?

    I also wanted a Dolomite sprint.
    They were similarly crap and probably built using the same out of date techniques.
    A hunting rifle that scares any quarry off during cocking is a wonder to behold.
    Oh the joys of hindsight

    The tracker is a piece of history but thats where it will remain. A collectors joy, but no rifle to use in this time.

    Do all airgun owners hunt? I doubt a paper or metal target will run away if it hears you cocking a webley tracker
