Pillower Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hello all, Bought a new shooter on thursday and thought I'd post some pictures up as I think it's a little bit special. It's a Webley and Scott 701 'Best Boxlock Ejector' - It is a very different gun from a standard Webley. It was made some time in the 30's when W&C were based in London (On 55 Victoria street by the looks of things) as such it feels much more like a London Boxlock than a Northern one. By this I mean it's a little more slender and feels less chunky and more refined. Its selling point for me was the wood which is gorgeous but did mean I completely blew my budget, ah well I'm happy! Here are the pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brian28 Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 That was when webley could build top quality guns, then they stared importing rubbish. That is rather nice should last you a lifetime enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
