    Webley FX2000 .22

    Talking to a mate earlier,he claims his son has stripped his to try and cure a leak,and then lost interest.

    Not the most valuable pcp I know,he seems to think he might be better off breaking it for parts.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated, as I've little if any knowledge on the subject.

    If it's allready stripped why not put some new seals in yourself & put it back together.

    Sacrilege to scrap it. Please don't !

    My favourite PCP in the collection. Superb quality. As the magazine rotates you can load another pellet once you get used to it. Love mine to bits.

    Still kicking myself for not buying a .177 which can up recently. I'm a fool sometimes !

    The owner is under no illusions,they're a good gun,he just doesn't seem that interested at the moment.

    Like me, the owner has experience working on springers but is extremely wary of high pressure air.

    I've just watched a video explaining how to strip one down, looks easier than working on a springer & seal kits are plentiful & cheap. Dumping all the air is the easiest part !!

    Just had a look, and yes it appears to be relatively straight forward,dumping the air via the on board gauge.

    Still it's not my decision to make.

    Exactly the same, sort of. I have one. The stock is slightly different to look at.
