I have two Webley revolvers.
One is an RIC model in excellent condition, probably re-blued,but chambers and barrel seem as new.I believe I see a proof for Birmingham and a proff for black powder. Also, there seems to be a third proof with a NP under a crown, but the first part of the N is missing, perhaps a mis-strike. Is this gun likely to be chambered for modern powder? The piece is marked Webley & Scott Birmingham
I also have a much older Webley, model 1952NSW. Worn finish but solid chambers and and barrel. A heavier piece than the RIC
On this pistol I only see the BV for Birmingham and a black powder proof mark. It is marked 450 I think. I suppose I can not use modern powder cartridges on this one?
Any good info will be appreciated.
