    Webley Tomahawk Ser no. Timeline help

    Ok folks I'm trying to do a timeline on the Webley Tomahawk ie Ser no's and dates. I have one here 887421. By the spec I'm guessing Oct 2002. Any chance members can send me their Ser no and I'll try to put dates together for this British classic and share it with bbs members.

    My guns are packed away at the moment,due to a house move.
    Once we are in the new place, I will add my Tomahawk to your database.

    I have finally dug out some paperwork regarding my Tomahawk.
    It’s a.177 in walnut and the serial number is 927083.
    The former owner (BEESA) had a V-Glide conversion and a barrel change to a Walther barrel,by V -Mach.
    The original barrel (a Webley one)was a bit pellet fussy.
    Regards

    I have very patchy factory records that show the Tomahawk was first produced in September 2000, starting at serial number 885638, but I can't guarantee this information is 100% accurate.
    That is the only mention of the Tomahawk, no other information at all.

    I have a 0.22 Tomahawk based Sidewinder serial number 891046 with documentation confirming the date, 18-10-2001 this was a prize in one of the Airgun magazine.
    Hope this helps?.

    I doubt Patriots can be dated (other than general Patriot manufacturing years). Maybe if someone bought the manufacturing records. But not model wise

    I have some incomplete factory records that were compiled by two senior Webley employees, and the numbers for the Patriot have been mixed up with the Kodiak, as both were designed for export, but as near as I can tell, your Patriot was produced in August 2002.

    They were produced from Sept.2000 from S.No: 885638 and the Longbow was produced from Oct.2002 from S.No: 906200, so I would guess yous is around 2000/1.
    Unfortunately Webley did not use separate series of serial numbers for different models, and as I don't have detailed exact production records for some models, I can't be more precise on your Tomahawk.

    Over at dads place, so finally had the opportunity to dig out his Birmingham made .177 FAC Tomahawk.
    The rifle was bought from the offical Norwegain importer several years after production ceased in Birmingham,
    perhaps somehwere around 2009-2011 if I remember correctly, but it has probably sat on the shelf there for some
    time as it was one of few Birmingham made Webleys left in stock here at the time.

    The first digit in the serial number is difficult to read as it is stamped a bit shallow, but under magnificatiion it looks like a 9,
    followed by the numbers 17070, so the full serial number seems to be 917070.
    Too many airguns!
