yes H.'s recommendation

Good Points

Very accurate,good quality,quiet,cheap for what you get. Recoiless.

Bad Points

pistol grip is a bit box shaped. An ergonomic one would have been better.

General Comments

The Webley Nemesis is a great little pistol,well made,very accurate and not expensive at all.It's the perfect back garden plinker or target pistol...I've got the Aimbrace shoulder stock aswell that turns it into a mini carbine that really can put the pellet where you want it!
The only thing I'm not keen on when firing it is there's no recoil(a bonus to most people)I like a bit of recoil,it makes the gun feel more 'alive'.
The Nemesis is never going to be a Weihrauch 45, but it's a bargain at the price and lots of fun.I recommend anyone to get one.

    You can actually get a .22 to go over 6ft/lb by changing the pump and air reservoir to a .177, so you need to change the barrel to a .22 to get more power than the Weihrauch 45, and it will be a lot more accurate as well. With the sights sitting on the same mountings as the barrel, you get consistent aim point, and if you use a TV screen style red dot, mounted to look like a foresight, you have enough room to close the cocking mechanism without catching the sight.
    As far as power goes, people confuse power with penetration. Both the Nemesis and Hurricane are factory rated at 3.2ft/lb. The .177 will penetrate better as it is smaller, has less surface area, and is travelling faster. The .22 has more wallop, as it has greater mass and arrives like a brick through a plate glass window. Simply, the .177 is a stiletto and the .22 is a club. Both will achieve the same result on a card target and both will kill small prey up to 10 metres (if YOU hit it, cause I know the pistols can).
