Hi 45flint,

That's an interesting question. I only have one boxed Webley Mk II Target pistol and the box instructions do mention Webley No 2 oil. It is slightly later than your example and I wonder if the earliest Mk IIs were produced before Webley introduced No 1 and No 2 oil?

If possible, I would appreciate a picture of your instructions as they sound a little different to the norm.

By the way, I have also used an empty 3-in-1 bottle as it is period correct for a cased pre WW1 BSA air rifle I have.

Kind regards,

John
