    my only WRPH it is a great shooter, however the Crosman 400 rifle you sold me is one of my go to guns for fun.

    I have never seen a concentric WR in the U.S. for sale ever. I am a new collector with only a few years of serious Air Pistol collecting in the U.S..

    Steve you have more experience have you seen concentric WR for sale? Maybe it is time for me to do the paperwork & contract a shipping agent to import some of the airgun we never see in America. I wonder if shipping to Canada is any easier, I am a Canadian citizen. Steve send me an email at rdmur530@yahoo.com or text me [Two -01] [923 122 -three] I lost you contact info bro. Take care

    Best,

    Randall
    The only concentric I have seen for sale was at the Beeman auction about a year or so ago. Same time I bought the HPs of his. Both had issues, the best with a replaced grip and the other had no trigger, but they are so rare they sold well. There was 2 of them!. Here are the pics and prices realized. Issues really bothered me, and no way could I buy these given my HP buys. Not unhappy I passed.

    I believe that only around 100 Concentrics were ever produced making them extremely rare and probably almost impossible to find outside the UK.

    The WR Non-Concentric always reminds me of a large Victorian revolver and the Concentric more like a Flare Pistol.

    That realised price is less than people pay for just one concentric pistol, so someone got a bargain, and I believe they are no longer in the States

    Hopefully some of the others on offer stayed in the U.S collecting community, as Brian said you’ll be lucky to see another.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    I would have expected that pair to have fetched $5000, given the rarity.

    Should have tried, now I feel bad! That out of place grip panel threw me. Still like all my pistols to have triggers? Could make one right by stealing grip off triggerless? But still smooth bore and fixed sights. Maybe reason they made so few?
