This is the model of Webley you carried if you were Rich. Winston Churchhill Went to SA with the exact model.

Nice gun, but IMHO, you can get them cheaper in the US and import them yourslf as an antique if you're a Canadian.

Nice gun. Antique status has been driving actual realized selling prices of this class of handgun up. Nickle plated spur trigger .32 rimfires seem to sell for as much as $300. Have heard of Mk. I Webleys selling for over $1000. I dothink that the reduced price of $2200 is, well, optimistic.
