Hi David
The book only deals with the Webley Pryse type revolvers on pages 107, 108 and 109. On pg 107 it states that no record now exist for pistol sales.
Quote from pg 109: " Here again the problems posed by the dearth of survivors and a total lack of any documentation hinders any comprehensive conclusion. Indeed the only evidence we have of the pistol trade is a small group of what are termed 'Webley/Pryse' or 'Webley No 4' revolvers. At the time of writing, one of these is on display in the Royal Dragoon Guards' museum in York, while the specimen illustrated is, at present, in Australia."
We attended a talk by David Baker, soon after the book was published. The content of the book mainly deals with the Horsley shotguns and the patents.
Best regards
Ian
