I've been told that Phil has finally acquired a Webley Hurricane! I'm looking forward to reading about his tinkering and plinking on here. 👍
You know how to start Phil "Whenever I undertake one of these projects, I say to myself" 🙄
I'm sure you know all about breech seals and checking the transfer port screw by now.
If you fancy a "little something for the weekend" (Oh err missus) ----------------here is a refresher for the Trigger Tuning https://forum.vintageairgunsgallery.com/webley-pistols/webley-tempest/#post-233.
It only takes about 15 minutes and is worth it. I seem to be the odd one out as I prefer the narrower early trigger to the later wider one. I even rounded the edges on one I had and still didn't like it. I think I sent that one up to a bloke in Scotland.

Tis true 👍
Somehow up until this week I have never owned a Hurricane although I have plinked with a couple back in the day.
I mentioned it in passing to a few people that I was on the look out for a Hurricane and a Typhoon and Chris @HWVixen got in touch some time later to tell me he had found me a really nice Hurricane if I was interested. A deal was done and it turns out it really is in fantastic condition,thanks again Chris 😎
There’s no need for any form of restoration but I will give it a service and it may barely need that tbh.
Just a nice (unboxed) Typhoon to find now and with Kempton coming up on March the 8th I’m hoping to strike lucky.

It was my second pistol after my first pistol the trusty gat nearly 40 years ago,it was amazing to aim at something and actually hit it 🤣 and the start of a life long webley obsession.
Its funny how it all starts, my Webley obsession started with a
El-Gamo Centre! And as odd as that sounds it’s absolutely true 😂

You really need to sample the Relum Hurricane that Gamo nicked the idea from Phil. I can dig one out of the box and send it to you on extended loan if you want?
I prefer the Relum to the Gamo Falcon or Center

While on the subject, don't forget those other copies (Italian Bruni CF-92 and Chinese QS35). 😏
