Views on the New Webley Alecto

[Paul55]

Stand by for a surge of second hand Gamo Compacts in the sales section once the Alecto hits the shops, I can see mine heading that way.

Yeah, saw that coming so mine's gone already.

Mind you, two whole weeks to wait

Perhaps I'll set up in business buying up used compacts as the
Boys can't shoot them...mike... roll up, roll up buying cheap compacts

I like the Alecto and will be buying one but I will not be getting rid of my Compact just yet, it depends how you fettle a compact how good the trigger gets, it can get really good, clean and crisp with a lovely 1st stage and zero 2nd stage creep.
If anyone's selling a Compact cheap I'd be interested in another for a project

I've been engineering for 40 yrs, & tweaking airguns for 25, not looking for an apprentice Nick, play with Ur Skif thats a good project. PS
U can tweak compacts without all that spanish engineering!!...mike...

I didn't get chance to shoot the pistol at the 6yd targets, so it definetley wasn't me

Mike,
It's English engineering, I looked at what had been done & improved & refined it
You've not tried the trigger on my Compact yet, you'd be surprised!

BTW I owe you some work or something so if there's anything I can sort out for you let me know. I just got a big lump of nice Canadian Maple so if you get a suitable pistol but need anatomical grips give me a shout,
Regards
Nick
