    South Wales Airgun Thefts

    Last night, a very good friend of mine had 10 airguns stolen from His home in the north west of Cardiff.

    They were...

    2x RWS Excalibres

    2x RWS Rapiers

    RWS 500 (action and stock, minus barrel and breech block)

    Stalker TigerTen

    Webley FX2000K

    Air Airms S400K (.177 beech stock)

    Daystate Huntsman MKII (.177)

    Weihrauch HW95

    Unless stated otherwise, all were in .22, and fitted with walnut stocks.

    All were fitted with scopes and silencers.


    If You have any information regarding this matter, please call South Wales Police, quoting incident number 274/11.11.11

    http://www.south-wales.police.uk/default.aspx

    or PM me on here.


    Many Thanks.

    That's sad news! Theiving scum!

    Re. sr.no's. I photograph mine and unique parts of the guns. i.e. scratches, blemishes and even wood grain pattern!

    Shouldn't have to do this but it's unfortunately the way of the world ATM.

    I'll post the serial numbers up as soon as He forwards that info onto me.

    The list has now gone up to 11, as He has discovered His son's Logun Domin8tor went missing too.


    All of the guns are minus the filling adaptors, so if anyone in the South Wales area is offered a model of PCP from the above list that does not come with a filling adaptor, please be cautious about buying, and kindly forward any info You can onto myself, or South Wales Police who's contact details are in the OP, Thanks.


    As You can imagine, He is totally gutted about this, so any info You may have will be very gratefully received.

    Sorry to hear your bad news mate. Probably someone from over the border It has made me realise though, that I don't know the serial numbers of any of mine!! Must make a note of them all and keep in a safe place.
    I'm not as good a shot as I used to think I was.
