mattybugeye 885 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Well as a few know I got a bright green powder coated webley vulcan from jjm Was a right mess in alot of different shades of green when I 1st saw it I thaught wow is this sortable but few days of hard work later........ Shoots nice now too thanks jjm for keeping me busy for bit lol The blueing is tad gray and it's still little rough around the edges but I think it's in fitting with the year of the gun looks a nice solid old pice now It's going to a friend of Ryans a 1st time shooter so will hopefully give him the bug for the sport and sure will serve him well to get him going Thanks again jjm Right I better get on with my 97 now 2 Quote Link to post

Dr B 186 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) I have a lot of fond memories of the vulcan. My first real air rifle. Do you know if its a Mk I or II? I only recently fond out there were different versions. Anyway, looks fabulous! Put a smile on my face. Happy days. My father used to borrow it when working shifts for the MOD and would come back with bucket loads of bunnies.....literally, bucket loads...... Edited February 24, 2015 by Dr B 1 Quote Link to post

Dr B 186 Posted February 24, 2015 Report Share Posted February 24, 2015 Mac beat me to it, but at the end of march I'll have a 3-9x50 Simmons scope that you could have....(not sell, but have FOC). I'm upgrading the scope on the Tx and the simmons is a nice, but basic scope - so although its good, its not worth much. Happy to see it go to a good and aprpeciative home (I've got no spare mounts though). Quote Link to post
