Just picked up a Beeman Bear cub fro n the NY airgun show. Nice little carbine in really nice shape. I have not seen any come up for sale so I assume it's not that common. Research shows it was sold between 1995-98. I think its basically a Webley Vulcan 3 carbine with a little more umpf. Really like vintage Webleys. 
New addition.. Beeman Bearcub
- Thread starter Sammi68
- Start date
these little guys were great little carbines. shot a little hotter and (as mentioned) had the vulcan3 / stingray trigger which is adjustable from atop the scope rail..... you made a good find. i dont see many uk webleys thesedays , but the bearcub is one i have seen only twice , since 2009.... i liked these better than the c1 carbine / rabbit gun thing (crude trigger on c1).. . - paul. here's some data :

I had one years ago but sold it due to terrible trigger and very high cocking effort. I got it for my son when he was much younger and he could not manage it by himself. Likely should have just kept, one of the very few rifles I have sold.
