Webley and Scott Senior
Air guns · Air pistol · UK
Completely original, working and in fair to good condition for its age. Has been stored in oiled paper in dry garage for over 50 years. Was last used circa 1970's. Serial number 518 at end of air barrel and under left grip. Dated to pre 1958 because 4 after BIRMINGHAM on right side of barrel. Definitely post war, as purchased new by my father some time after he returned to civilian life when he was demobbed from the Royal Navy after serving in the Pacific in WWII. So say 1948-57.
Fully legal to own and use in the UK as even when new it would have had muzzle energy no more than 4 ft/lbs, well below the legal limit of 6 ft/lbs. In its present condition with original spring and seals it is probably not even half that. This can though easily be refurbished to as new power (or beyond) with inexpensive component parts, springs and breech seals widely and easily available.
