Hi all can any of you more technically aware types host or link some photos for me???
Had an interesting discussion today with the local gunsmith whilst on the prowl for an original foresight for my recent webley omega. Upshot is I've come away with a huge box of various spares.
Some I know, some are bagged and the rest are a mystery!!!!
As a taster there are ( if the labelling on the bags are correct!)
5 BSA mecury triggers
1ea HW35 piston seal and trigger guard
5 meteor sear springs and 1 sear
2 meteor triggers
1 airsporter piston and seal (edit Webley???)
1 Premier (mkll??) pistol rearsight set
1 supersport scope stop kit
various webley and bsa rear and foresight asy's
vulcan front and rear trigger guard screws
1 tempest/hurricane cocking link, slipper articulated joiner, pins and spring
webley osprey manual, display tag and allen key set
BSA cylinder end pins and aperture peep sight.
There is loads more rattling around in the box un bagged and this will be a real test of knowledge.
Think of it as a pub quizz with piccys hopefully
Cheers all, if anyone can help pm over an email and I'll get the pics away

No 2 on Pic 5 look like Diana 25 type rearsights, though it's a common pattern that was fitted to quite a number of different rifles over the years, for instance several of the smaller Dianas, 15, 16 etc.

Thanks for all enquiries at this stage. The spares will be available if of any use to people once they have been identified, either individually or as a job lot for those hoarders out there
Will put them in a seperate thread soon.
Cheers all
