Webley .22 Nemesis “Special Edition” Pneumatic Air Pistol.

One of the standout features of the Webley Nemesis is its adjustable power system. The pistol has a power adjuster located on the side of the gun that allows the shooter to adjust the power output of the pistol. This means that the Webley Nemesis can be used for both close-range and long-range shooting, making it a versatile airgun.

The Webley Nemesis is a single-shot, break-barrel air pistol that uses compressed air to propel pellets. It is a powerful air pistol, capable of firing pellets at velocities of up to 420 feet per second. The pistol is available in both .177 and .22 calibers, making it suitable for both target shooting and pest control.

Another great feature of the Webley Nemesis is its accuracy. The pistol is equipped with a fiber optic front sight and an adjustable rear sight that allows for precise aiming. The pistol also has a two-stage trigger that provides a smooth and consistent trigger pull. These features, combined with the pistol’s power and adjustable power system, make it an excellent choice for target shooting and small game hunting.

In terms of design, the Webley Nemesis is sleek and modern-looking. The pistol has a synthetic stock with an ergonomic design that provides a comfortable grip. The pistol also has a ventilated recoil pad that helps to reduce recoil and improve accuracy.

One thing to keep in mind when using the Webley Nemesis is that it requires a certain level of maintenance. The pistol needs to be cleaned and oiled regularly to ensure that it continues to function properly. Additionally, the piston seal may need to be replaced periodically to maintain consistent power output.

Overall, the Webley Nemesis is an excellent air pistol that offers power, accuracy, and versatility. Whether you are a target shooter or a small game hunter, the Webley Nemesis is a great choice. Its adjustable power system, accuracy, and modern design make it a standout airgun in its class. However, as with any airgun, proper maintenance and care are important to ensure that it continues to perform at its best.

There were several coloured versions also produced in very limited numbers, these being Red, Yellow, Blue, Orange & Green & dull and bright Silver.

This dull silver special edition was released in 1994 at the Birmingham NEC Show and is now a very scarce Pistol. The Webley Gun Slip is also very hard to come by.
