My father has a Webley service revolver from the Boer War stashed away in a secret place. It was used by either great grandfather or great-great, I forget.

just like this one:

Very nice Bat.  A Webley is one of the firearms I have on my wishlist.

Wonderful sword and piece of history there.


Skorp, I couldn't say exactly, around 1897 I believe but I am not certain.

oh you could be right, have faith in yourself. The first boer war spanned from 1879-1915 and the so-called second boer war with the unimaginably brave and skillfull Dutch heroes spanned 1899-1902. Research a little on the battle of Skion Kop if you want to learn about the Dutch freedom fighters of that time. It's quite an incredible story.

you think a 1300 FPS pellet gun is a toy? or how about a 900 FPS CO2 gun is a toy? how about i shoot you in the leg with both of them and watch you call it a toy.

got pics of that BAR? i dont even think you've gotten more than 1 foot from a BAR. BTW weapons he has dont count as YOURS.
i dont think a little co2 gun would kill anytihng at that speed.
they are just bb guns, I have a pellet gun and i will agree that it is not a toy, and go bird hunting with it all the time, BUT if your calling me a lier im calling your little air guns toys then.

i dont even think you have ever shot a real gun.

yes i will try to give you pics of mad dads BAR and for plus ill show you how to feild strip one :)
only a moron would use Dolby positioning in a game.

how can you even think such a thing? are you that shadowed from the real world when it comes to guns or are you that misinformed when it comes to CO2 guns. 900 FPS will kill anything smaller than a dog. and for you to say ive never shot a real gun, i have pic's of me shooting a 10 ga. shotgun and a M1-Garand at my hunter safety course gun range test. also, i never called you a liar from the beggining, "little air guns" arent toys. even a small 250 FPS airsoft gun i have isnt a toy. it hurts like hell and if it hits you in the eye, your blind from that eye forever. and i already know how to field strip a BAR. its called google, which you will probably use to get the pic of your BAR.

i called you out on your lie, now prove to me that it isnt or just admit the lie right now.

Nice! :aok    I got the full size three weeks ago (my first gun :x) and love it.
Could you recommend a good brand for spare magazines?

umm 250fps hurt's? i have a little spring pistol p30 that is like 280 fps and it dose not hurt
becasue i do airsoft battles with my freinds (yes we where a helment with eye protection) ive been shot with guns close to 350 fps they dont hurt, and i have been shot in the leg,arms,chest, abd even in the neck with 200t o 300 fps airguns they do not hurt much AT ALL its like a pin salamander

I bought several of these.  They have functioned flawlessly, and don't cost much either.
