Coloured webley nemesis

[Josie & John]

Here in the firearm-crazed US, many airsoft or otherwise realistic-looking toy guns are made in colours. It helps the (understandably nervous) police tell them apart from the very common real things, and has no doubt saved the skins of some foolish youngsters.

Makes you wonder if some enterprising bad guy ever painted a firearm in a bright colour to cause confusion!

Maybe that would not be in line with their street cred though!

Seems that Webley and BSA weren't the only ones to go for a bit of bling:

Further to the information about coloured Webley Nemesis pistols, I have a Webley Stinger with a bright orange body in its original clear plastic packing. I bought this in York from Blue Moon Airguns (I think) around 20 years ago and I seem to recollect that the gunshop owner told me it was one of a batch of 250 made specially for the Pony Club. This would tie in with other threads.

I think the gunshop owner was pulling your leg. Pony club rules have always? Specified single shot only. At least in the 1990's when I was involved with them they were. The metal framed turning targets they use wouldn't take kindly to steel BB hits either.

That's interesting as I hadn't heard of it previously, but perfectly feasible. I've never added a Stinger to my collection so have no knowledge of them whatsoever.

Very interesting - again thought the Stinger was a black-only gun. The only thing I know about mine is that it jams using plated shot. The shot tub that came in the pack was polished steel, and (based on mine) it seems like that’s all that’ll reliably feed.
