CAN ANYONE HELP WITH A VAIUATION ON THIS RIFLE
Webley Service Air Rifle .22 This rifle recently came in to my possession , its not my thing really , so I know very little of air rifles of this age , so I will be moving it on at some point.
The functions correctly although it is in need of a new breach seal , I understand it has been in a cupboard for a good number of years.
The serial number is S5194 ( On both the action and the barrel )
I have photos but cannot upload them , any assistance in valuing this rifle would be greatly appreciated.

Troubleshooter thanks for your response , I have posted many photos on this site , this is my first time on the" collectibles Section" .Originally Posted by Troubledshooter
In the Posting Permissions , at the bottom of the page in the collectibles it has not given me the permission to post attachments in this section ???
I understand the importance of photos and have them available.
I am hoping for some sort of ball park scale valuation for this model of rifle eg basket case to immaculate , or conversely e mail the photos to a member who could review and advise . Thanks

As above, photos would nail it. Common calibre .22 value on the info provided £300 rough - £600 mint.
Can’t say more without good pictures, sorry.

The stock is obviously a later home made replacement so will affect the value.

I wondered about the stock , its not wood ,but well made out of some sort of resin material.

So the value will only be in the action. which should be at least £250. just my take on it.

I wouldn't argue with that as a minimum.

Just my personal opinion but your likely selling price might be nearer to the £200 mark (plus postage). One problem is that repair/replacing the stock just by itself could well be an expensive task in its own right. As everyone has their own view of the worth of "project guns" I sometimes think that the BBS could be well served by allowing valuation threads incorporating a facility for "hidden offers" to be forwarded to the person posting the initial valuation request. If that was the case knowledge of likely selling prices would be gained on a first hand basis and the poster would also gain some real idea as to the level of interest that their item would generate if offered for sale.
