    Original Webley Typhoon pistol

    I've put a want up for one in the appropriate section.
    Im only after a plinker, not a boxed one, doesn't matter if the grips are damaged or even missing,etc, so long as it's reflected in the price

    Good luck, I took ages to find one, although I think I was just unlucky……

    I only want the pistol though, so hopefully a plinker will come along

    My first airgun. Hurricane with a smaller grip and a weaker spring.

    And very nice they are too. Must admit, it’s been ages since I’ve seen any unboxed ones. Mine are boxed. I’m sure the vast, vast majority I’ve ever seen have been sets as per the above pictures. I know the production time was quite short, but still…

    I'm afraid a boxed one would be wasted on me, all my pistols are kept in ex military grab bags, 3 pistols in each, with a few tins of pellets in the pouches.
    I'm sure an unboxed garden plinker one will turn up eventually.
    I waited I may hit on a slavia zvp Haswell if I'm lucky.

    I have one of these, the grip is way to small in my opinion unless it's for a child. The tempest or hurricane is a better gun to use.

    They are a neat collectable though since you don't see them often.

    When yer looking for an item, especially in a particular condition and price, its a bit like waiting for a bus....,eventually they turn up lol.
    I waited 3 years looking for a bsa scorpion, and ended up with 3 in about a month.
    I'll be patient, see which one turns up first, Typhoon or the old slavia zvp I'm also after.

    I just read the figures quoted for the Typhoon was 14000 over 6 years.
    Got to ask where are they all?

    Guess as they were a 'youth' gun, with a lot of plastic/delicate parts, not many survived.
