    Mine is a Turkish built Rifle and boy is it a pile of Monkey goo. Don't buy the Turkish built Rifle, not worth it at half the price. Unfinished parts, crappy industrial lube, plastic trigger, misaligned barrel. total junk, i would have expected better from a chinese rifle. Buy a Beeman R series or an RWS. Don't buy the Turk Webley it's junk. Im using mine to teach tunes.

    Webley Longbow is a great hunting gun for squirrels rabbits and pigeons, bit heavy, well worth the money.

    The Webley Longbow air rifle is very accurate, nice to handle, its got a nice stock, its pretty powerful as well. The only bad point I can find it that its loud even with the silencer on. It is an all round, well made air rifle.

    For a break barrel its very good on accuracy. Mine has a 3-9 40 scope which is just right.
    I have a silencer but obviously its a springer so its still quite noisy.
    I love it! Period.

    I have owned my Webley Longbow for about 2 years now and it is certainly the most impressive breakbarrel spring air rifle I have come accross in terms of accuracy and power. I opted for .177 caliber (To be different) and am very satisfied with the penetration of the shots, Using standard dome head pellets, this rifle will blow a clean hole through a steel mestin (Army cooking pan) at 30-40 meters without any problem.

    I am currently using the rifle in conjunction with a Logun sound suppressor ( ...

    I fitted my longbow with a new "venom spring" pushing the power up to 22 ft-lbs using 22.5gr pellets. there is less recoil, less mechanical noise when fired, and fitted with a .22 LR silencer is virtually 100% silent. i have mine zeroed for 80 yards but with a ballistic recitle have made kills comfortably out to 110 yards on rabbits using bipod

    the gun was so inconsistant pigeons would only fly away if i threw the gun at them joking apart at 30 yards groupings were at 60mm which made the gun unfair to use in case i only wounded in the end i have exchanged it for a theoben evo stock not as good as the webley but deadly accurate (one holer)at 40 yards

    Really good gun for hunting and target shooting. Its got the power and the accuracy to take down any target from quite a long distance. This gun is great value for money and anyone looking for a change should try this. You wont regret it!

    A nice gun with a lot of tuning potential. good value for money. Im thinking of doing a theoben gas ram conversion in a year or so, although the spring is soo good it mite not be worth it, but it would sort that recoil

    I bought my Webley Longbow .22 for only £230, good price compared to other spring rifles out there. I pay around £70 for a Hawke Reflex 3-9x50 - Mil dot which id is the best combo for this rifle. I found that this rifle has no problem at taking down rabbits or crows at around 55 yards, and would still be able to kill at much longer distance.

    Spend months researching and got lucky by getting my hands on an original model - I'm sure Longbow's are good rifles but mine was a dud ; I'm definitely not getting another Webley any time soon .

    I'm very disappointed with mine ...

    Bought second hand in .22 cal, a bit rough at first but what a difference it made with the following maintenance: stripped and polished, new piston seal, v-mach spring and top hat installed, re-lubed. It is now one of the nicest springers that I have ever shot and I've shot a lot. The recoil is sweet, a nice nudge as it was quite sharp before, now it's very well balanced and the weight helps with the recoil, its very accurate for a springer. It's a brilliant hunting rifle, mine now shoots at 11. ...

    I have had my Webley Longbow for a few weeks and I have killed lots of pigeons. I have not missed a shot, the pigeons drop with a mighty whack! The rifle is high powered and has a nice barrel cock. A great hunting rifle!

    The Webley longbow is one of the best air guns i've owned, it's great in the field or in the garden shooting targets. Great accuracy, i would highly recommended it.

    In my opinion the Webley longbow is a much underrated air rifle which deserved greater accolade. Extremely accurate and beautifully made. Excellent two stage trigger and Walther Lothar barrel. The bluing of the metal is far superior to the likes of Air Arms or Weihrauch. The walnut stock is particularly nice with its pistol checkering. No longer in production since Webley went bust after 200 years in the business. There are a few still available. Recommend purchasing a fine example of British ...

    I bought my Webly Longbow in February 2005 from a local gunshop in Stafford. With it I got a Webley 4x32 and some low Webley mounts along with a BSA SAS silencer.
    I chose the more manly .22 calibre as I was planning to use it for conies although with hindsight I believe .177 would of been a better choice due to the flatter trajectory.
    When I got it home I bolted the scope on and dashed into my 25 metre range in the garden to zero it in. Accuracy was nothing short of outstanding wit ...

    I bought my Webley longbow today, I had originally ordered the xocet on thursday, it had arrived arrived on friday by mid-day but was a .177 I wanted the .22 I phoned up the dealer who was extremely helpful, first they offered me a free upgrade to the XS and some free accupells. But it wouldn't be with me until the next friday. I really wanted to shoot so I decided to drive up. When I got there they gave me a free upgrade to the Longbow carbine. With 6X40 scope for £154 (their very good pr ...
