Ginger nut pigeon thrower (webley mini launcher)

Recommended Posts

Bought this the other day and found virtually nothing about it apart from one guy saying it threw tiny clays the size of ginger nuts so with a little modification and a pack of cheap ginger nuts I have given this a whirl and it lobs them miles! 
not had a chance to fire at any targets but it look like it could be a real good laugh.

has anyone used one of these things in the past or have any other info about them.

Took it to work today and took a quick slo mo video of it in action, it could be a real tricky target and quite good fun.

 

That was ace! Thanks for sharing as I wasn’t sure if it was a windup but looks like great fun to shoot 👍

I bought one of those on eBay about 10 years ago for about £30,lovely condition with the wooden box,I found the modern mini clays were too big to fit the rubbers,so I resold it again on eBay about £95. They were marketed by Webley and Scott,but made in Italy for them in the 1960’s and 70’s!
