    Webley Typhoon and Hurricane

    I’ve got one of each of these pistols and I’d like to know if there’s any difference in their specifications and performance. Obviously with the Hurricane being a .22 and the Typhoon being a .177 there’s a difference in ballistics but is there any difference otherwise.
    They both share the same rear sight, which may be similar to certain Webley rifles. The small metal notched plate, the actual sight, is damaged on the Typhoon. Does anyone know if this is removable and replaceable and if so how as it appears to be connected to the knurled plastic windage adjuster.
    Here’s hoping for some helpful replies.
    Many thanks,
    Graeme

    The Typhoon was designed for juniors (hence the smaller grip) and has a weaker mainspring.

    Thanks for the info Geezer… on comparing them side by side the difference in the grips is quite evident!
