    Webley omega walnut stock?

    After a walnut stock, right hander, for my Omega.

    Happy to wait a while for one since I'll be out of the country for the rest of the year, but is it a realistic prospect finding a good second hand/new old stock or would it be more cost effective/quicker to get one made?

    Thanks

    I have never heard of the existence of a walnut stock for the Omega. Or Eclipse, for that matter, or the other break barrel Webleys of the period.

    Trackers came with the option of Walnut. I do have a Webley catalogue to check definitively unfortunately it is 1,200 miles away at the moment...

    This: http://www.airgunbbs.com/showthread....ighlight=Omega may be of interest until you find the rarer walnut stock.

    Thanks for the info gents (and nice try Ian, but already have the std beech right hander )

    I remember a walnut stock, but I'm now wondering if it was a venom stock? In which case I think I might have more chance of success getting one made!

    Thanks again (and air tech if you get chance to have a look in your catalogue sometime and find otherwise, please could I have a scan/pic to copy? Thanks)

    God loves a trier!

    I do remember seeing a walnut stock for an Omega but that was a one of from Custom Stocks in Shefield. The funny thing is that when it turned up it had to go back as they had not left enough room to operate the barrel catch!

    Good luck with your search.
