Webley Pistol Valuations Please!
As per the thread title, I'd like to ask what the esteemed members of the BBS would consider to be fair prices for the following Webley pistols:
Junior:
An excellent piece, Batch 667, .177!

Junior:
This .177 Junior pistol was bought in Truro in the 1960's by the father of the man I bought it from - he wanted it to shoot the mice in his holiday cottage in Cornwall. The note with it says that he never actually used it for this, so I assume it must have been a 'good reason' excuse to his missus...
It is Batch No. 24, Inspection stamp 'E', No. 1071, 1958-73 series, made in late 1960s. Maddock frame.

Tempest:
A very nice piece that has barely been fired. The only let-down is that (like so many Webleys) the writing on the right-hand side has been the victim of contact with the oil-contaminated box packing.

Please note - these are currently being held back for someone who has been waiting a long time for them. Should they not sell, I will say so on here, but until then, please don't PM me asking to buy them...
