Quite right,  some guns are for shooting,  some for collecting due to their quirkiness.

Kind regards,

On a more serious note:

I seem to have a problem hitting anything some days but for some reason I find this 1998 model particularly inaccurate - not sure why - when I'm on form I can achieve good results with older Webleys. Bit of a mystery - perhaps the barrels bent!

Hi Ian.  Strange, the .22 Tempest I just sold, which must have been a similar vintage, was easily capable of cloverleafing at six yards if I did my bit.  It seemed to like RWS Hobbies best, which seems odd for a 5.6mm barrel but maybe nobody told the pistol it was only supposed to like old Eley Wasps and Marksman! :)
