Chaz25 Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) Well I was in Weston buying some .25 pellets and talking gun's as you do, the guy in the shop told me of an old Webley classic he had for sale and asked if I would have a look to help rate its condition as we were talking about old classics we had owned, I rated it as a solid 9-9.5 much as he did, then I asked the price, it was good! so I thought it would be kind of silly not to as I like carbines and not had a Webley rifle for years. Once home I gave it a basic strip (stock off) still had factory grease in there so a light oil and wipe through on the bore and on to some shooting, it has a nice weight and balance, a smooth stock nicely formed with cheek piece's for both handed shooting, good for me as I mainly shoot left handed, and even with some very poor plinking pellets accuracy was pleasing, the trigger is rather good little bit of creep but the brake is crisp and easy to judge, also no safety on these so you can de-cock and really its not needed, so over all most pleased! its a very nice, simple, potent little number! (pic's to follow cos we all love pic's) Edited December 15, 2022 by Chaz25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30-6 Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 When the model first came out I got a .177 for my youngest son. We had a few squirrels and rabbits with it, but he lost a bit of interest in it and it was used very little. Still in immaculate condition I sold it to someone on this forum.

figgy Posted December 22, 2022 Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 Loved my late 1980’s webley Vulcan .22. Not the best guns but nice to shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I had, think I moved it on for a HW35 or airsporter, kind of a long time ago but I feel the xocet is sweeter shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be moving on some of my guns but not this one, the brum made Webleys are very nicely turned out. The condition, smooth stock and short barrel all make this a keeper.
