      Hi Phil

      That's a modified Webley Mk1, The barrel release latch on top looks to have been repaired/modified and the steel buttplate is missing otherwise it looks fine!!

      Here's mine, They're quite small compared with the later Mk2 Service rifle! ?

      There were only 1,500 made, Around the first 500 had the info done by acid etching, Webley found out quite sharpish that the etching wore away rather quickly so after around the 500th gun, They started stamping in the info!

       

      The barrel release latch on mine is just flat on the top!

      Hi Derv

      I'm not too sure, Never chrono'd mine but at a guess i'd say slightly less than 6ft lbs!

      Phill, Having looked at the pics again, It's in a very poor condition, The stock has been repaired with pine rather than walnut, I'm not sure what they did with the barrel latch and the whole lot would need polishing deeply to get rid of the pitting for reblueing, Also, I think the safety catch in non original ☹️

      I'd hazard a guess at £150, I saw two rough ones go for £600 but the stocks were in good condition and they would have both not taken much prepping for a reblue ?

  3. Another load done and dusted pal, nice work keep it up ?
  4. Phill, I'm guessing your not a keen daystate fan! ???
  5. Never owned a thermal spotter, i wouldn't mind one but even at £1300-£1400 its too much for me unfortunately especially atm, but those pictures look very clear to me, were they taken in the daytime or nighttime?
  6. I'm sure Mr Manning mentioned something about a plenum in his video,
  7. Money money money Everyone company wants to be top man
  8. I'm blind I'm blinded by the light ??, got my eyes on the fx impact fac .25 or 30cal but gotta save the pennies and apply for fac but won't be this year i don't think
  9. I used to own the mct airwolf a few years back I used for hft which I liked, but sold it after.i stopped shooting for a while, then went over to weihrauch on my return and.now fx aswell.

  21. Thx BN...the owner said they hardly see any around now so im doing my part but then again I get nothing to shoot haha.
  22. Went on the feeder this morning on the garden perm ,just the one bushytail, four hours but the owner was pleased, did see another squirrel up in a drey either building it or making it better but no chance of a shot so another trip in a couple of weeks I think...
