Hi All,

New member to Group having rediscovered my Air Weapons after finding them long forgotten in my mothers house. Both are very old but in excellent condition. A Webley MK III 22 rifle which from memory was a bithday present for my 14th Birthday some 54 years ago the rifle has a little light pitting and the stock has some light scratchmarks on one side. The Pistol which was bought later I think about 1967 is a Webley Senior (E) which is missing the 177 barrel and is also in excellent condition.

I have no intention of parting with these almost forgotten treasures and have cleaned and lubricated both before using them.

The rifle seems to perform well, reasonbly accurate at 20yds and with good penetration into soft wood. The pistol seems less powerful than i remember but that might been rosy memories. So far I have been unable to find a replacement barrel for the pistol but will continue looking.
Currently I have only fired within my largish garden but intend to investigate local clubs as my enthusiasm for the sport has found new energy.

Yours Aye
Wingco
