That is a bitter tale because the walnut stocked 83 (with the 'improved trigger') would have cost a far bit more than the 77 and could not match it in any area, except build quality. It was incredibly frustrating watching the British airgun industry make repeated attempts at bringing out a German-beating air-rifle and being wide of the target. Webley's Omega was the only one which really did match them and by the time their R&D department had finally got its act together it was all over.Originally Posted by derekj
A very interesting trip down memory lane. A friend of mine bought Sterling HR83 and persevered with it for a whole season. It was at the time when the HW77 first arrived on the scene
