I had one But my son needed a squirrel shooter, He has some pecan treesthat needed protecting, if you catch my drift. Well I missed my Vulcan which liked Super Domes.So when one came up for sale I snatched it up like candy to a kid! This Vulcan Likes H/N field target trophy's. Both Rifles are very accurate, which means they can hit a dime at 25 to 30 yards very, very often. If it misses it is probably me. The Vulcan is built to last a long time, it is solid! Mine are over 20 years old and... (read more)

iv'e had my webley vulcan for about 4 months now and i must say i'm absolutely loving it. it has quite a kick back because its spring but its taught me more about shooting than any other person or rifle. i tend to do mainly target shooing with it but i have shot a couple of vermin with it, and i know from experience that its accurate and powerful enough to hit a rabbit and a can from 60 yards away. every one says to get rws superdome and beeman but i think that it works much much better with...

I have a MK3 Webley Vulcan Carbine with moderator & 4x32 mil dot scope fitted. It's fantastically accurate & consistent up to 50 yards, regardless of wind or rain! it does have quite a bit of re-coil being a springer, but I'm used to it, and quite enjoy having a little 'kick and thwack' when shooting! - re-coiless PCP's beat mine on accuracy prone, but standing, I'm up with and beating them!

Written on: 02/10/2010
Powerful and accurate but being relatively small and light the recoil on mine was problematic, the screws holding the stock and action together would vibrate loose and the scope would creep. I have to laugh at the guy who says he has killed various game with his Vulcan including "large predators"! What does he mean, tigers, or bears perhaps?

Have had my Vulcan carbine with 'silencer' for 10 years. Don't find it heavy - if anything, compared to pre-charged weapons it's rear-weighted and feels fabulous. Doesn't rattle. Have standard scope and just shoot targets as practice for firearm shooting down the TA range. The spring recoil gives a feel of a much bigger cartridge weapon like an SA80 (really!) and lets you get used to the rifle jumping off target after each shot - just like a semi-auto firearm. Pre-charge rifles may be... (read more)

I received my Webley Vulcan new in 1983 - for my 14th birthday present. The following year my parents furnished me with a TASCO 3x9x50 scope.

I recently bought a webley vulcan .22 of someone I know, the quality of the rifle is excellent however there are a few problems. One, the barrel appears to be jammed up pretty bad and nothing is going through it (with a working air rifle you should you be able to see down the barrel, as in look through it and see light at the other end?), I'm a little scared though of taking it apart as I'm not sure if I would be able to put it back together again! Any advice would be helpful, thank you!
Written on: 05/11/2006
To get the jambed pellets out you just need to partly open it, then put some thin PTFE oil in the breach loading hole and leave its barrel down for a few hours. Push a piece of of 5mm wooden dowel into the breach, which should be about 30 mm longer than the barrel, until you feel the obstruction. Tap the end of the dowel gently to get the pellets moving and they will soon be out.
<br/>
<br/>Good luck.

I would have to disagree with the allegation that the Vulcan is a heavy rifle compared to modern break barrels. A bit of research will reveal that the Vulcan is as light as a HW95 and would probably pass the Goldilocks test!

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 have fitted a silencer (moderator) and a Theoben Gas Ram which transformed the rifle making it much smoother and more consistently accurate although it was good with the coil spring.
Theoben advertise the shorter 'lock time' of a Gas Ram as a good thing, I agree. This is the time between you squeezing the trigger and the pellet leaving...

I owned a webley vulcan carbine from 93-95, I bought it second hand and it had a 6" barrel. I was told that the model I had was made for export but I cannot confirm this. I can say that this rifle is the best air rifle I have ever owned in terms of accuracy, power and reliability.

My first rifle was a Webley Vulcan. As soon as i got it i was amazed at how good it looked especially for the price. The Beeche stock looked as good as any walnut could and the balance was great.
