Good Points
Power, accuracy, and generally well made.

Bad Points
Foresight attachment method, secured to barrel by a set screw so there is a possibility of misalignment with the rear-sight, and thus messing up your zero.

General Comments
I purchased the Webley Vulcan air rifle (the mk1 version) when I was 16, and used it to exterminate the local bird and pest population, which it did with great effect! I find the rifle to be accurate and quite durable. I left the UK in 1988, and left it in my gun cabinet for almost 17 years.



I had the opportunity to bring it to the US where I now live, and the blueing is still in great condition, and I shoot 10 shot 1-1.25" groups at 25 yards with open sights.



I've never had any problems apart from the foresight issue I raised earlier in the bad points section. Overall, a great rifle for hunting, plinking, or field target shooting.



All I need now is a Webley Patriot!
