My New Pistol its a Webley in .455, Uncut with some Ammo

[will4me]

Look at what I just picked up, it is a Webley in .455 Uncut with some Ammo.
Its a "WG" army Model it has Army & Navy CSL on the top of the Barrel and the serial number matches all the way to the grips. the finish is about 80% on this one and the bore is Perfect.
It locks up tight.
I have not shot it yet but that will be next weekend.
I have found some cool info on this one:
My WG Army was made by Webley in Nov 1898 and sold to C. W. Collingwood Esq. Jan 1899.

Cool toy! Take a vid when you shoot it, and post up!

Very cool, love the old revolvers. Shame they can't talk.

Will do I only have very few rounds for it but more on the way.

And yes I love these old war horses and I too wish they could talk.

Oh my!

I'll take it!

Fascinating, remarkable and just plain awesome weapon you have there. .455 ain't no joke and would put someone down quick in a home defense situation.

We have an Enfield model at the shop.

Have you tried fitting the .455 rounds in the cylinder? You're 100% sure it's not been cut?

The rear edge on the cylinder looks pretty thin, but it may just be the photo angle.

I've got one from 1915. Been reloading .45 auto for it so don't have to use the clips.

This one is defiantly not cut.
I have another one that is cut it is a MK4.
and yes the .455 Ammo fits Perfectly.
