Can anybody suggest a pistol for a British impression? I'd been looking at replicas (just as a holster filler), but then saw that single-shot springers are about half the price! I have seen a single-shot 1911, but I'd prefer a revolver. The only thing is, I don't know what would look authentic and what would not.
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
Smith & Wesson Model 10 Military - airsoft. There's a few gents here got them
You can get a webley model gun or 'any' de-ac of valid type
For holster-fillers:
There's a guy on the ww2 reenactment forum who makes a resin cast Webley .38.

For airsoft, in addition to JD7's comment:
I use a TM M1911A1, and have recently bought one of the new WE Browning HPs.
Thanks. Keep 'em coming!

If you want to not have to pay a fortune and actually hit something a 1911 is the one to get. You can't go wrong with a marui.
Tanaka S&W M10 Military and Police is the closest revolver you can find. Note that it probably won't be as accurate as the 1911.
I have a VERY old 6mm Marushim M10, which I've NEVER got a kill with.
Conversely, my stock TM M1911A1 has 7 kills in its last 2 outings.

Yup... a damn fine gun.
Browning HP ?
Thanks all. I'm weighing it all up, given that I'm unlikely to use it that often. I think I only ever got one kill with my P38, partly because most enlisted men (FJ apart) did not have pistols. I'm guessing it would be the same for Brits (although I do require one for this particular impression).
I think I'm being drawn to the Zib replica Webley.

I got one of those cheapo M1911 springers from Airsoft World, works as both a holster filler and shoots quite well with .25s.
If a .45 was good enough for Sidney Jary, it is good enough for me....
