New Webley .357 Made in the UK

Asked if they would make a LBR version for us in the UK ?

What a cracking looking revolver, I have always had a soft spot for the Webley and Scott and this looks a pleasantly refined reproduction. Now if only they did it as a Black Powder ML version...

Grips and calibre are oh so wrong for a Webley.

It may be progress or not ?? !!!

But at least it's made in the UK. Now just need a LBR version to keep the plod in line.

IF the .357 had been around at the time I'm sure Webley's would have been so chambered

NICE to see the old stuff coming back into the fold - I'm sure MORE of this WILL happen as CNC & 3D printing technology makes this type of project more cost effective.

Their justification for the changes to the original design were interesting.

Saddler, CNC is a prime example and some superb Mauser actions have been manufactured here in the UK.

I can't get any details at the link, anyone know the price ?

Ooh I'd give that cabinet space! My Dad had one in .455 and I hated it but mostly because it looked old, that was twenty plus years ago, funny how age refines us!

Such a shame that something made in the UK can't be enjoyed here. (by us plebs).

You mean a nitro muzzle loader? Which would be cheaper since they are being made from the ground up? A uk legal LBR or a nitro loading example?

[Explosive]

If the price is reasonable I might buy one. Anyone seen reviews ?

There is much more meat on the cylinder compared to an original..........
