Scrolling through Instagram I came across a post of a new (to me) Webley WG replica maker, Shoot & Scoot. Located in the UK.

Re: New Webley Replica Option
That's great! Actually looks like metal.
Also, not perfect, but:

Re: New Webley Replica Option
I cant find a Rook replica, so I bit the bullet and decided to order this bad boy. Its coming from overseas to the USA so I am guessing it will probably take over 2 months to arrive. At least based on other overseas orders I made this summer.

Anyway, I'll let you all know what I think when it arrives!

They look pretty good. Has anyone else bought from this site?

Re: New Webley Replica Option
I bought a pair of their US army trousers just to see if they were a good option! Very properly made and almost a direct copy of Indy trousers, but much darker and more khaki in colour. They did very well for the Goodwood Revival anyway!

Re: New Webley Replica Option
I had one but sold it on - it's a Mk V frame with a MkVI barrel (I know as the cast picked up the original markings on the pistol) so a bit of a Frankenstein. Rubber is a bit too soft / flexible and finish not great. Other than that it was okay for the price and there was no VCR act requirement for UK buyers.

Re: New Webley Replica Option
When I placed my order I was a wee bit worried that there was no follow up email, no shipping notice. Nothing. I’m hopeful it will be worth it! Fingers crossed.

Re: New Webley Replica Option
Have you received it yet? I'm curious if they're a viable option, or if I should just modify my MK VI airsoft.

Re: New Webley Replica Option
This company now do a hard resin cast of a Mk VI Webley - should be easier to modify into a WG-a-like than the pot metal of the airsoft:

And they take quite a reasonable approach to VCR Act compliance which can be a limiting factor in the UK for sourcing replica or airsoft pistols (although oddly doesn't apply to airguns or deacts).
