Notes: This book, by noted collector Christopher Thrale, is "a comprehensive history of all the air rifles made by [Webley] between 1925 and 2005, from the introduction of the Mark 1, right through to modern pre-charged guns such as the Venom Viper. ...This book also covers the circumstances under which the early rifles were introduced, together with information as to how and why they were subsequently developed ...It also examines the myriad of fascinating accessories produced to complement the Webley air rifle, together with a chapter discussing the various promotional aids and advertising material used. All these artefacts are illustrated with colour photographs, some of which have never been published before."
