Post 1934 2nd Series Webley Service MK II .22 Calibre Air Rifle Correctly Without Safety Catch. Sn 22626 - 22626
Webley Service MK II air rifles were made between 1932 & 1945 with several variants. Initially 2nd Series Webley Service MK II were made with safety catches. In 1934 a Webley board meeting decided that the safety catch on these rifles would be dispensed with entirely and the hole where it would have been located plugged at the factory (see pages 32-39 of Christopher Thrale's book Webley Air Rifles 1925-2005). The left side of the cylinder is stamped 'WEBLEY SERVICE AIR RIFLE MK II". 'MANUFACTURED BY WEBLEY & SCOTT LTD, BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND and with the Webley 'winged pellet logo'. The barrel is stamped '.22 Calibre'. It has the Great Britain, USA, Spain, Germany and Canada 1925 patents stamped on the Right Side of the cylinder together with the correct patent Number '371548'. The rifle is fitted with a flip up adjustable aperture sight and correctly has no safety catch with factory plugged hole where it would have been located on the right side of the frame. It has an excellent original stock with chequered panels at the wrist and ribbed horn butt plate. The metal work has its original blue finish. The weapon is serial number 'S1451' which is stamped to the rear of the trigger guard and matching number ‘1451’ is on the barrel (see pages 32-37 of Christopher Thrale's book Webley Air Rifles 1925-2005).

B.S.A. Lincoln Jeffries Patent Air rifles were introduced in 1905. The Lincoln & 'H' or Heavy model were produced between 1905-1908.

The metal work has even blue finish and it has all original wood stock with chequered panel straight hand stock and chequered butt. The stock is impressed 'Lincoln Jeffries 121 Steelhouse Lane Birmingham’. The rifle measures 39 ¾” overall with an 18 ¾” two stage barrel. The top barrel flat is stamped 'The Lincoln Air Rifle’.

C1972 Fine Vintage *Fully Serviced* FWB 300S 10m Side Lever .177 Target Air Rifle with Numerous Original Match Scope Variations. AI 880. - AI 880
Manufactured by Feinwerkbau Westinger & Altenburger in West Germany. The modell 300 was much like the 150, in that it has a single coiled, steel mainspring and a thinner, more sporterised stock, yet it was labelled a 300, rather than the 150. You don’t see as many straight 300 rifles as you do 150 rifles these days. Perhaps that’s because when the 300S came out it overshadowed the 300 and drove it from the marketplace in short order. The 300S has two coiled steel springs that are wound in opposite directions, designed to cancel the slight amount of torque at firing. The 300S stock is shorter than the stock on the 300/150. It also has a more vertical pistol grip to enhance the offhand hold. This system is called the sledge system, after the name for a dry-land type of sled whose runners make it easy to drag heavy loads. In the 300-series there is a special system in the stock that isolates the shooter from the movement. A set of steel rails set into the stock allows the action to move while the stock remains still. The shooter doesn’t feel any recoil and only the slightest vibration. It is completely different from the Giss anti-recoil system, in which a counterweighted piston has no discernible recoil. The ratcheting anti-beartrap safety that prevents the sliding compression chamber from smashing your thumb during loading does not need a separate button to release the cocking lever after you’ve loaded. The only extra step the 300S does have is a small locking latch on the sidelever that unlocks the lever at the start of the cocking stroke. These rifles were sold without sights for a slightly reduced price, and many buyers mounted short scopes on their 11mm sight dovetails. The front sight looks more conventional and is of the globe design with replaceable inserts. On the 300S, it’s part of a larger aluminium barrel sleeve that makes it proprietary. This example comes with a plethora of different inserts and shrouds (see images). With the rifle comes several original rear sights and scarce bipod. The beautiful Walnut stock with adjustable butt plate has very minor age-related marks, but nothing major. The metalwork is good with nice blueing and again, only minor age-related marks. The rifle cocks, loads & dry fires perfectly as it should with a strong spring action. The price includes UK delivery.
