General Comments

The Webley Mark 3 is an old rifle and from what I can see not many people have one of these.
Mine was given to me by my dad 5 years ago but he's had it since the 50's, it's around 700fps and considering that's it's been fired probably 10,000 times or more (I'm a very big shooter) the powers holding up, it's still as accurate as the day it was bought and even though it's only fitted with 3-9x32 scope it could take far larger scopes. There is one being sold on a website I know for about £150 so it's definitely worth it, considering that it cost around £90 in the 50's.

    Hi Have to disagree on the price you give for the MKIII. I bought mine new in 1964 and I still have it. At the time I paid 28 pounds for it and that included factory installed extras such as sling swivels. Nice rifle. 550 FPS in .22.

    I went to get my HW80 re-serviced at Webley Venom today. Webley showed me a Webley Mark III, tried it out at the Webley range, beautiful gun!

    Is it .177 or .22 and at 700 fps i can only assume its .177- but i think not. They cost 90 quid in the fifties - i think not.

    Hi, I got this oldie in 1975, and it is still in good shape. I'm willing to trade it for a more usable gun, for this is really more a collectable item. Anyone interested?
