Webley Mk 3 - Sights & performance

[PaulR]

I have two of them, they are great and both Chrony at 10.5/11.5 ft/lbs - they have open sights and no means of fitting a 'scope.

TBH using open sights was how I learned to shoot. You either aimed and hit or missed. You learned that you REALLY had to decide that the foresight was EXACTLY on a level with the top of the "U" of the rearsight. Then you had to centre the foresight EXACTLY in the middle of said "U" at the same time. I still do the same juggling act today - don't breathe when shooting.

So - in answer to the original post - yes, Mk3 with open sights is just as good as a modern gun with a tele at the same (close) range.

But are you?

Ill say this, before the precharged and some other top rifles people hunted bunny with these oldies, if your confident of a kill shot, no worries, I used an old relum, and it was ample, now on the subject of Webley, I have a mk 111, I need a loading tap, and the screws for both sides, also the front stock screws, and a rear sight, can any help me, can email me on mentalcombat01@gmail.com, also need a rear steel sight for a tornado. and maybe a spring guide for a rel telly. need some low prices not like the rip offfs from the suppliers, like 5 quid for a bloody screw
