Webley Tempest wanted
on: July 11, 2012, 06:24:33 PM
I'm looking for a Webley Tempest air pistol 1.77 or .22. must be in A1 condition, good price paid. Probably only one for the Brits this, as I cant imagine anyone being willing to ship on "accross the pond"! However......... :-\
It seemed like a good idea at the time.

I know its not a temest but would a Umarex CPS be of any interest to you ? Complete with 2x mags , co2 , pellets and a silencer adapter.

No thanks mate, I recently sold my Co2 pistol. Really cool guns, realistic as heck and the rapid fire on them is awesome. But I dont use them very often and it became a pain to have to keep changing the o2 canister every time I took it out. So sticking to the old "springers" from now on. Plus I have a pneumatic one too.But thanks anyway  :tu:

Yeah, I've been looking all over the place, just missed out on a couple of mint ones yesterday......poo timing, but I only got paid today! Going to a local air gun shop tomorow, chap there said he has one rated 7 out of 10, we'll see :-\ I'll let you all know if I "pull the trigger" on it  :D Pun intended!

I have a mint, boxed with tags Tempest in .177 (one of the later ones with the broad trigger blade.)

Drop me a line if you're still looking mate.

A bit off topic perhaps, but I'm curious.  Is this pistol made by Webley & Scott, or is this a case of a company using a famous name for marketing purposes?  And if it is the same Webley, are they still in business?  My father has a Mark VI and it's always been one of my favorites in his collection.  A bit larger than .177 though..... :)
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D
