Hey guy's and gal's,

As most of you know, I think I was probably the greatest sceptic as to what the Alecto would be like, given all the bad press from people as to whats happened to Webley products over the last few years and having almost made the mistake of buying a Typhoon last year.

I got to play with the Alecto on the range and I shot many targets with it and although the sight's were not set up for me, I got consistant sub half inch groups using a wide variety of pellets
If I had taken the time to set up the sight's correctly and adjusted the palm shelf for my hands I would have no doubt reduced the group further and been spot on the bull one the target.

I gave it a really good test and I repeated many of the targets at all three power levels and I have to say I was extremely impressed with the Alecto.
I loved the feel of the pistol, its looks (although I think the palmshelf looks odd on such a tactical looking pistol) and its superb operation
Another great feature is the supeb placement of the safety catch. I am a sod for forgetting to disengage the safety on my pistols, the placement of the saftey on the Alecto means that when I place my finger near the trigger, I feel the catch and instinctively disengage with a tiny movement of my finger before I place my pad on the trigger. SO EASY and I don't have to lower the pistol like I do with most
This pistol will help greatly restore the name of Webley back to what it should be

You all know I'm a picky son of a bitch, but I would give the Alecto a good 8.5 maybe even a nine out of 10
It is now at the very TOP of my pistol wish list

On the same theme, I got to play with quite a few Webley Rifles including the Venom Viper, Black Widow, Venom Sidewinder and the newly produced untested 'Concept' carbine.
I have to say, Webley is well and truely climbing the reputation ladder again in my eyes.
My next rifle will be the Venom Sidewinder.

Many thanks to Brian at Webley for bringing the guns to Coventry
