Re: Predom Lucznic
Jeff hi; I can't go anywhere near Certus' reply which is fascinating reading. I like many of my ream mates in the 70's bought the pistol thinking , as it was a dead ringer copy of a Walther LP53, we would be on to a good thing, the pistol was known locally only as the 'Predom' and everyone new what ...

Re: Intro fro South devon
Welcome Tony, age is irrelevant in this sport / pastime but I do admire a 'senior' shooter who re-enters the sport; [from a young and actively competing 71 year old]; you are in superb company here, I still own an earlier Mod 6, but have been happy to have owned Mod's 5 from the wooden grip one to t...

Re: FWB80 trigger
I have had the same conversation with several other pistol shooters who seem to have the same problem, I recently had occasion to work on a Mod 80 and to my surprise I couldn't get a two stage trigger either. I went through the manual which gives Mod 65 adjustments in great detail, but not so much f...

Re: A wee Webley gets some TLC......
I have only just seen the thread regarding the ''wee Webley'', it is so nice to see that you have gone through so much work in restoring this pistol to a superb condition rather than just using it for parts; I know the B series is rarer than most so well done and a fine example is now loved again as...

Supported Pistol
This is a fairly new discipline, apparently taking Europe by storm. There are three levels of support available according to age, but the idea is to keep older people shooting for longer; the lowest category is actually not for ''too old'' a level of competitor. Check it out, it is very good. There ...

Re: Webley Mark I Pistol Barrel Extensions
I think I must fall into the same group of people who have never really paid attention to the smaller barrel protrusions as against the well documented ones of the Webley pistols. I have just parted with several Mk I pistols as a part of a sell off of my most of my Webley Pistols collection and I ne...

Re: Rare Webley Pellet Tin
Nice one Brian. I thought I had seen all the W & S pellet tin variations and boxes but then along comes this surprise and thank you for sharing it with us. I know several manufacturers used small tins with 200 pellets in and strangely they are almost exclusively .177 for some reason. Eley sold Wasp ...
