tosspot Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 If it says "Premier" then it's a Premier Is it "Blacked" instead of "blued" does it have a sticker on its' side how many pins around the trigger is it like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tosspot Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Webley made the Mk1, Junior, Senior and Premier then latterly the Tempest, Typhoon and Hurricane Your Premier is around 40yrs old and if in fine fettle very much worth what you paid for it in my opinion the Premier just edged the Senior in the shooting stakes and if you look after it it can only appreciate in value and will provide much enjoyment for years to come as they were very well made, a weak spot on them is the trigger sear, if it fails to cock or goes off very easily then this may need replacing enjoy it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold the lot to a Dealer at the Phoenix 2 years ago for £100 Cash!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
