I got the stupid webley and scott nemesis in today it doesn't work

[thegunguy]

I got the Webley and scott nemesis in today. It is missing the pin to puncture the CO2 cartridiges with. now I gotta send it back. What crap right?

Mod edit: Moved to Springers, Pumpers, CO2, and Vintage forum.

Total crap, best thread title of 2019 in my opinion at least.

well I was looking forward to your thoughts on this pistol and I'm sorry for your bad experience 

is the piercing pin in the cap??? and of course it's not in the cap but on the valve face

I did watch a video on the pistol and it was ok, he had gotten a .177 and .22 and the .22 would not hold gas so there is a quality control problem and would guess these are not test before packaging, it's too bad

I don't know this pistol at all but maybe (like the crosman co2 tube guns, 2240 etc...) the piercicing happens with the first shot???

Is this the same subject? I mean are they related?

Asking for a friend...

yes I'm the same guy that had the thread up that I ordered one. The company I bought it from will pay for shipping back . they said they will give me a new one. I want to them to test fire it before they send it to me but they want money to test fire it. I never had these issues with the crosman, Benjamin and Sheridan air guns I've owned. this Webley has better sights and a better trigger than a stock crosman 2240. it also has daul magazines but they are a pain to get in and out of the gun. I will use the single shot tray it came with if I can get a good webley sent to me.

no it is suppoused to have a pin in it. even customer service said it is probably missing it. I heard these air guns are made in china. I don't know if it is true or not. I got sick of lugging around and shooting a air rifle so I sold the Sheridan 2260mb and I'm trying to get a good air pellet pistol instead.

 

[thegunguy]

that Webley and scott nemesis with 300 rws diablo pellets ran me over 146 bucks with shipping and taxes. Expensive crap. I wish I didn't have to pay that much but I'm looking for a pellet pistol in CO2 that is more accurate than a crosman 2240 stock.

Buy yourself a Prod....you'll never look back.

a little late to switch pistols but a Diana Chaser kit would have been a better option

the Webley name was once a great company that had well made products but that has changed

I have wondered about who makes this pistol for Webley but haven't made a lot of effort to look

back in 1983 I bought a new Carver amp and it was 1500.00 and the sales guy who I knew well said it anything goes wrong bring it back and we will fix it

I said I just paid 1500.00 for the amp why would it go bad and he said they tell a Mercedes customer the same thing, it lasted 2 weeks and I had a 35 watt amp for a month

so the moral of the story is sh-t happens

oh the amp, it failed again and I took it back to Carver this time and they said someone had epoxied the main board because is had cracked in half and was no good and wanted money to fix it, i paid nothing for the repair and it still works sorry for the side story

In a previous thread you said you couldn't hit ten meter targets with a rifle, and now are switching to a pistol? Find a shooting instructor. I doubt you could shoot better than a 2240 is capable of.

 

[thegunguy]

I can hit ten meters with a air rifle. Just not like 2 inch targets I can't hit at 10 meters standing. I got sick of carrying around and shooting a air rifle.
