Right side has a bullet with flames over W& S.

A "Flying Bullet", wings rather than flames, I believe.

Looks like a "WP" model.

[Flying10uk]

"WP" model.

Any chance of a little more information on what you mean by "WP model", please? Do you mean War Department or W.D.?

[mr.e moose]

It does look like a Webley pocket hammerless. Is it in .320 calibre?

[bigduke6]

Yep, a WP (Webley Pocket) hammerless .320, they made a hammer version also.

What a neat little revolver...

[mmppres]

Yes its small an neat. Took it in on a trade. So do i have a common revolver. W.P. 320 is that 32 cal ?

[browningautorifle]

W.P. 320 is that 32 cal ?

I'll bet it is, a .320... or .32 rimmed.

mmppres,
Nice little piece, often seen in nickel coated, but you have a great little Webley Pocket WP Hammerless 6 round pistol there in what looks good used clean condition.
You'll need 7mm (.320) rounds. Stopped production long before WW2, but were often found in NI on weapons searches or finds.
I think you'll find it a beauty to shoot to. Real shame we haven't seen them in the UK mainland for years.
