Wanted: Webley Omega Deluxe

[ashf9999]

Yes there was DL version... looking at old ad's inn AGW etc.

Never seen one in person though... thanks for the feedback, looks like I've found one.

Hmm. Was it a factory-deluxe, or upgraded by a third-party or shop as a special edition (ie SFS)? Short of Beeman adverts, I've not seen any factory reference to a deluxe version, and it's seemingly not mentioned in Chris Thrale's book.

I’ve seen a Beeman advert that referred to a “deluxe” Omega, but it looked just like a standard Webley Omega. Probably just the advertising. The standard beech stock was deluxe compared to American manufactured airguns of the time, so they probably just labelled it as such.

If there ever was a factory deluxe (i.e. walnut) version of the Omega I’d love to see one!

Cheers

I believe the op would stand a better chance of finding a Webley Eclipse deluxe in the USA that rifle does have a walnut stock.

And I have the thumbhole one. Mach 1.5

Does it trap your thumb in between the stock and barrel release if your not careful when cocking ? the one I had did
