    Webley .455 Auto and S&W .455

    Two recent pistols to the collection, these never sold in previous auctions and I had seen them in an after sale and they still didn't go, the reserve on the Webley or the asking price was way over for the condition etc and one pistol grip was missing, I based my offer on the auction pics and trying to find a set of original grips was very slim, bought some from the US, but when I picked up the pistol the missing grip had been found........ have to admit the auction pics never really did it justice.

    The Smith & Wesson was also a low offer and I was going by pictures from the Auction, again very good for what I offered.

    The sad news...... its near the end of Service pistols used by Britishicon and Common wealth troops during WW1, just a 1911 in .455 to look for.........

    Maybe Lugers after this ?
