    Webley Osprey Supertarget?

    Saw an Osprey ST. Should be Army version, but the Williams peep thats fitted looks far more modern than the 1 on my Army ST (which has slots instead of knobs).
    Also the rear sight raiser fitted was sold with the Anschutz sighted ST afaik. Not fitted on the Army version. Not on mine anyway.
    Is this an original Army ST? Or standard ST retrofitted with a later Williams peep?

    Not sure Yana but I know Beeman used to advertise two versions of the Williams aperture sight: a standard with screw slots and de-luxe with thumb wheels. Webley would then list them as accessories here in the U.K. during the early to mid 1980s.

    Kind regards,

    John

    It's the same sight as shown in Chris Thrales book on Webley Air Rifles. I also have another that has the sight raiser block. Tim
