    The Beeman Tempest is good quality, durable, excellent muzzle velocity for this type of air pistol.

    A little much to pump for those of the female gender and a bit of what I would call recoil from the shot.

    Quality item, well made and durable. Even being in storage for over 15 years, simple mant ...

    Beeman / Webley Tempest air pistols rank consistently among the best sellers year after year. It is easy to understand why considering these air guns pack some of the highest velocities available in an air pistol in one of the most compact frames on the market.


    To make these air guns as light as ...

    I was very fortunate to find a brand new Tempest made in England in the 1960s, still with all its original papers, in .177 caliber. I could not believe the way it felt in my hand. The only other gun that ever felt that good was a Model 52 Smith & Wesson pistol which I put thousands of .38 Specials ...

    The Webley Tempest came from an old line of overlever spring-piston pistols, like the Senior and Junior. Functionally, little changed, but styling was upgraded for the Tempest.

    Essentially, what you've got is a large diameter, short-stroke piston and compression chamber sitting underneath a short r ...

    What a great little pistol! I've had mine since 1982 and it has held up well.
    It is about the size of a Colt 1911 type pistol. In this little package is a lot of fun. The grips are anatomically the right size for any hand, pointing and shooting is natural and fast. Beeman sells aftermarket wooden ...

    My friend has one of these and he has the inter-changable barrels with it. He has both the .22 and .177 barrels for it, I preferred it in .177 simply because you get more of a 'wack' on a target, and the speed of the pellet is brilliant. Both barrels where very simple to remove and change. Easy to l ...

    Oh boy, you're going to say. Here's another blow hard bragging about his marksmanship. Well, so be it, but I can back up what I say, and have done it to the amazement of those so inclined to see me do it.

    My Dad was a Missouri farm boy and helped feed the family with his single shot 22 rifle, a ...

    After twenty years I decided to purchase the Beeman Tempest to compliment the Webley Vulcan rifle I have had since I was a teenager. I used to own a .22 version many moons ago, and shooting my .177 version in the back garden brings back memories.

    It seems they have widened the trigger shoe to imp ...

    My version of theBeeman Tempest .177 cal. is the Webley (UK) one. It originally had a .22 barrel but I stripped it to polish up the trigger sears and changed to barrel for .177 at the same time. It is a lovely little pistol. The looks are a little on the "whacky" side if you are used to imitation fi ...
