Webley & Scott Mk 3 .22 Air Rifles

WEBLEY AND SCOTT MKIII AIR RIFLE.

In excellent condition.

Some slight wear to the name badge.

Comes with gun slip case and 4×20 Telescopic sight.

The Webley Mark 3 had a very long production life, being launched in 1946 and remaining in production until 1975. The standard of workmanship and the sheer engineering excellence that went into these rifles is astounding for a gun that made about 8ftlb in .22 calibre.

This particular example was built in 1968 and is completely original, having never been restored and retaining 99 per cent of its original finish.

The walnut stock is shaped from the same walnut that was brought in for shotguns. Workmanship throughout is excellent, and the Webley badge inlaid into the cheekpiece is another sign of the quality that was bestowed upon these fine air rifles.

Other noteworthy features are the adjustable V-notch rear sight and the beaded front blade sight with hood. The rear sight is adjusted for elevation with a finely threaded, knurled wheel, while the windage was factory-tuned using the dovetails.

Located in Bristol.
