There a cracking rifle

 

they did have a few problems when they were made abroad

 

But now they are made here once again

 

mine was a single shot one but one of my mates uses a ten shot and i must say i was impressed with it

 

deadly silent with the mod that comes with the rifle

 

if you do get one get an early brummy made one or a later one ,,,IE,,in the last two years as all the problems have been sorted but like every thing else once they sorted the problems out the price went up on new rifles

 

so you can still pic them up second hand for around £250 or less for a full kit

 

mine loved JSB exact jumbos but mine was 22

 

There a long rifle mind

 

and the cocking bolt makes a loud click when you cock the rifle some times you can quieten this down with a little oil on the bolt and just pull it back and forth a few times

 

and put a mark on the mag as when its in you will no when its coming around to needing filling and all way put it in with the mark on show .

 

apart from that there are no serious problems to look out for

 

O,,, look out for knocking the barrel out in the field as it can be knocked out of line but this can be fixed in the field if you carry aln keys jut loosen the barrel band and it will Aline its self then tighten the band back up.

 

It is hard to knock out of line mind but did happen to me

 

You will be amazed at how accurate they are and out to some good distances to

 

ME........WOULD I GET ONE ................HELL YER TO RIGHT I WOULD

 

Match any top pcp shot for shot and that in-clouds the hw100 of any cal

They are top airguns and amazingly accurate. I use its close relation - the RWS excalibure and its a gun that i will never part with and nothing iv owned has ever come close. definitely reccomend the raider!

Dose the rws suffer from the loud click when cocking the rifle Tom

 

its annoying when you have taken out one rabbit then you go to load another into the breech and the rabbit feck off because of the click lol

No not really, the indexing lever just pushes it round nicely.

Help me out on this one, I've somewhat lost track of Webley over the last few years but I thought they were well and truly down the pan!

 

Are they back manufacturing or box shifting somewhere?

 

Cheers

Im not sure mate i know they shifted from Birmingham to Turkey and thats when all the problems started

 

now im not sure if some one took over or bailed them out but the production was moved back over here and all the problems were sorted out

 

then the price was put up as they do

 

Moley will be along to put me right if im wrong lol

I still thought that all Webley were Hatsan, just as you said the quality has improved!
