Boxed, Post WW2 'The Webley Mark 1' .177 Calibre Air Pistol With Accessories. AI 718 - AI 718 This is an excellent, boxed, 'Webley Mark I Air Pistol'. These pistols were made pre WW2 and post war. Pre 1939 pistol barrels were straight, without the post war ribbed barrel section and their grips were without the post war Webley embossed roundels (see pages 71 to 73 of Bruce's book Webley Air Pistols). Our post WW2 example has undamaged metal work and retains its original blue finish. It has the correct undamaged post war black chequered grips with embossed Webley roundels. The left side of the cylinder is stamped 'Webley Air Pistol Mark I Made In England'. The left side also has the correct oil hole marked 'Oil' with arrow indicator all highlighted in white. The front of the cylinder is numbered ‘582’. The right side of the cylinder is marked 'Webley & Scott Ltd Birmingham 4' and ‘Webley Patents’. It has an adjustable rear sight & the barrel strap beneath the blade fore sight is stamped 'MK 1 .177' (calibre). The barrel’s rifled bore is clean and has the correct post war ribbed grip section. The underside of the frame has a small stylised ‘&’ factory inspector’s mark. The pistol cocks and fires crisply. The pistol is contained in its original Webley labelled box which is undamaged and bears Webley pistol imagery. The inside of the lid has its original illustrated instructions for use. The box contains the pistol’s original Webley cardboard tag, illustrated instruction leaflet, 5 Webley paper gift vouchers which were included with these air pistols when purchased in the period & a cardboard Milbro Caledonian .177 calibre pellet box which contains a small quantity of .177 calibre lead pellets. The price includes UK delivery. NB As a post 1939 Air Pistol the restrictions of the Crime Reduction Act apply to the sale & delivery of this item. AI 718
