CaptC Posted April 14, 2022 Report Share Posted April 14, 2022 Help please PW's - On my travels today I found an old Webley Exocet .22 that had been left (really) in an outside toilet. The stock is broken at the hand (not all the way through) and it's obviously a tad rusty. The barrel will not "break" and is now soaking in releasing fluid. I'm sure a tap with a wooden mallet will free it. My question is - The silencer is a grub screw fit, I undid the tube as the grub screw was seized and waited for the baffles to fall out and get lost but the silencer tube was empty - is this standard? I'm sure with a little fettling the rifle can be restored so any info appreciated please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptC Posted April 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2022 Update, the gun now cocks and fires and my goodness what a bang! It is as loud as a .22 rimfire without the silencer. Screwing the silencer back on the report is reduced by about 50% (but I'm deaf so hard to be accurate) The rust has come off as well!
