A couple of Webleys

A place to discuss all things Webley. As this is probably the most collected airgun maker we felt it deserved a section of its own.

Very nice.

I am tempted to pick up a Hurricane, as there is one on front of the first Airgun World I ever bought

Just waiting for the right one to come along.

Kind regards,



Phil

It's great that they brought out a centenary model, but a pity it wasn't British made.

I do wish other makers would issue anniversary models.

Kind regards,

Eleven Centenial cases in all - one to house each of my Webleys, cost me a small fortune at £69 each!

Thats dedication!

They are very nice cases. You may recall I fitted one out with a replica Webley oilspout can and period pellet tin for one of my early model Premier's at the beginning of the year. I posted some pics - cant remember where!

Being a member of the awkward squad, & the silly question brigade err i do wonder could you not have bought a really classy gun for the cost of 11 cases, er maybe, M.  :?:  :?  :lol:  :twisted:  :roll:

There is a chap on the ABBS who makes replica boxes.

Bit expensive, but I am sure a lot of effort goes into them.

He also does pellet boxes too.

Kind regards,

You've got me thinking now, I shall have to pick up a junior, if I can find the right price/quality combination.

Kind regards,
