Someone mentioned that some parts of the Webley mk.6 were plastic ( namely the stirrup catch and the grip frame).
Well I can state quite categorecally that those parts are all metal. The only plastic on it are the grip panels.
I have tested the parts by scratching the surface ( in an unseen area), and the pistol is all metal as expected.

The lengths I go to in the interest of science.!

I thought the barrel latch looked a bit plasticy so I'm glad to hear that it is metal, in keeping with the rest of the pistol.

My local 10m range take a dim view of anyone using BBs of any material on their backstops due to the ricochet risk- Anyone know if there is a pukka .177 pellet version on the cards?*

*Or a way of making the BB version take normal Hobby wadcutters?

Pull the two parts of the shell apart. Drill the plastic to 4.6mm. Load pellet from rear and reassemble shell. May need to seat pellet towards front of plastic.
Note that the shell will no longer hold the bb.

You sir have just made my day.... What flavour cookie would you like?

[zippy]

Wouldn't you need to change the barrel sleeve for a .177 rifled one as well?

Simple, use gamo lead bbs. No ricochets like pellets and at only around £2.50 a tin I recall of 500 from JSR they're hardly expensive.

That`s what i am using,they are ok but in my pistol they have a wider spread than steel BBs, this is my first CO2 pistol so i don`t know really what`s good or bad at least it`s not spat back at me yet Gordon.

Gamo lead balls can be very variable. I've tried them in my Webley and they are no better than steel bbs and definitely worse than pellets.
The Webley is hardly a target pistol, but as far as possible,I do like inaccuracy to be due to me, rather than the gun.

Gamo rlb are very tight in the bore of my Webley. You should be using steel bb or H&N copper coated rlb in 4.4mm.
These are a perfect fit and shoot the tightest groups of all the bb I have tried.

looking forward to getting one of these myself, closest I will ever get to a real one
