I'd love one of these. Does anyone have a date for release?

Regards,

Ralph

Wonder why it's the .455 MkVI, rather than the smaller .38/200 MKIV. IIRC, the latter was more common in WW2.

Probably the same reason they came out with an MP41 instead of an FG42 or G43 or SVT40 or... *rant rant*

Who cares? Finally, a British service revolver is being released! (and, is usable in many contexts, not just WW2). Really, I can't believe the nitpicking sometimes.

It's the 455 because it was Indiana Jones's pistol in some of the film's probably ,far more likely than for any ww2 related reason ,who cares it'l do for me.

Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well

I had an email from the guy who loaded the video and he said they are only selling them in Asia and to contact Webly UK for one. As said above they say they are not selling them :roll:

Long as they sell them in HK, shouldn't be difficult to get hold of one. Just need to wait for one of the retailers to stock 'em.

We need these in 0.455", so we can :

a) defend ourselves against cultists and deep ones
b) Step outside and "do the decent thing" if we inadvertently pass the port to the right.

Don't forget that we might also need to.....

c) Stop a charging Fuzzywuzzy or Zulu in their tracks.
d) Join the Peaky Blinders.
e) Pass it to a wounded comrade so that the Pathan tribesmen don't take him alive.

The list of uses is endless and, all require that it be in .455 calibre!

They said that about the Nagant to begin with. Stop with the negative waves!

That is what I like to hear.
A 6mm version :good:
And it's a Chinese made gun (cheaper than a Webley licenced model, not that Webley are doing a 6mm version from the sounds of it) :good:

Or when, after every UK retailer managed to let the spring M1 carbines slip by unordered I'll be going straight to the source from now on before they become hard to find.
