Absolutely rebuild that rifle. Time for a new spring and some fine tuning. Beautiful old girl. She has aged beautifully!

My falcon is probably the same. It's a junior gun and it's very easy to over tune it. Making it feel harsh. So I put the original spring back

I think a series on 70s 80s airguns is in order. It's funny most modern shooters want the latest and greatest precharged and see springers as something to collect rather than using them out in the field for hunting. My main hunting rifle is a Hw30 that shoots at 8.5ftlbs, this rifle has accounted for loads of rabbits, pigeons, and rat's being lightweight you can carry it all day and it's incredibly accurate.

Wow thats awesome I picked up a mk2 webley vulcan this week too I'll need to refurbish it sort out the wood and take out the massive ox spring some turd put in it. Great idea doing some classics back to our roots everyone. Well done as always Dan fab work as always.

I still have my Diana Ser70 Mod78 bought in 1973 when I was 16. Still has all the orininal parts and still soots like a dream. I absolutely love it and out of all my rifles, this is the one no body gets to mess with. Great video.

On the other end of the Webley scale, I'm having my .22 Birmingham Patriot treated to a professional strip down with a new factory spring, piston seal and polished internals. It looks like it hasn't been apart in decades. I actually watched your review on the Patriot before I bought one but I've wanted one for 20 years+ and I'm 37. The metalwork finish is 🤌 Before sending it off it made 21-24 ft lbs plus or minus with most quality pellets but it was making 28-29 ft lbs with 18 grain H&N Barracudas! (only if they are 5.54mm - it likes wider pellets). I'm expecting it to be complete any day now and cant wait to see how much power it now makes. It takes a lot of discipline to shoot with accuracy but its very fun to plink with!! I'm currently trying to decide on another break barrel for an FAC project to chase similar power, either a HW90 or a HW80 with a 19.5 inch barrel that I can convert.

I have an Original Model 50 underlever in .177 made in April 1976 ... Although a little underpowered due to an old spring I just love this gun... Had it over 30 years and i will never sell it despite a few friends trying to prise it out of my hands with rediculous offers

I enjoy shooting my falcon it’s a fantastic little gun doesn’t seem pellet fussy and always puts a smile on the grumpy owners face 😊 If anyone out there would like something similar that’s also a joy to shoot. may I recommend the HW30 kit 👍 if your eyes are getting old like mine, you’ll appreciate the kit as it has a scope and muzzle weight that’s 1/2” unf just incase you’d like to fit a moderator just for giggles 😊 If only, we still produced quality products like this.

@ would you know of any alternatives? i really do find the short length appealing as im not the tallest bloke and like the idea of a compact, pointable ideally british made rifle and other than the accuracy issues youve pointed out the tracker fits the bill
