    The people I spoke to that had the problems said they just took them back to the shop and the replacement was perfect. So I think it's just very unlikely if you get one not working.

    Like you said though most people love them and I'm sure I will so I better get saving

    These are great revolvers, if you have an itch to buy one because you are interested in the real firearm then apart from the banginess you will not be disappointed.

    My guns are taking over at the moment so I am planning on thinning down my pistol collection to fund a lever action. The Webley will be staying as it is lovely and the perfect complement to my SMLE.

    Yeah it is an interest to me and something I can use in the back garden. I own other firearms not back garden friendly so it would be a nice addition.

    Thanks for all the comments from everyone I will be getting one at some point in the future

    I have a battlefield finish pellet version.

    It is a wonderful replica - I saw the real steel version in our local museum and apart from the slightly cocked hammer and - tbh - really stupid and unnecessary safety catch on the air pistol you would be hard put to tell them apart.

    The accuracy is also matched in shooting - barn doors are safe at 10 paces from each.

    If you want to shoot accurately - forget it - they are not terrible but just about anything else is better.

    HOWEVER - they are real fun, look, handle and weight the same as the original and as such are worth the price.

    I love mine (pellet 'new' looking version) For what it is, it's acceptably accurate and I've occasionally used it for UBC comps for fun. Someone earlier mentioned loading the pellets in the tips of the cartridge. I don't- I load them in the base, they fall out of the tips. Am I right or wrong? Dunno! Who cares- works for me

    With hindsight I should have bought a battlefield finish example, but I bought a leather holster off the bay from India which should help in the battlefield conversion

    Go for it- they're great!
