Holster supplier for Webley Mk IV?

I own a deactivated Webley Mk IV .38 revolver (yes a real one) which was used during WWII and has all the stamps on it to prove it. I bought it for WWII re-enactment. I wonder if any of the top Indy holster suppliers can make a quality holster for this pistol, as there doesn't seem much point in buy...

Not a lot of point when you can get the fur felt Christys Adventurer for $99 (£50 UKP) plus shipping from Hornet's Hats in London: http://www.hornetshats.com/f_hatview.php?link=Fur%20Felts A surprisingly good hat for very little money, and increasingly popular at the low end of the market! - Cairo

Thanks guys, all useful advice!

I think I'm going to wait for pictures of the Camptown Legend to surface before I make my final choice.

Meanwhile I've ordered a Christy's Adventurer to keep me busy :D

What with the Adventurebilt Henry, the Camptown 57 'Legend' and the Magnoli/Herbert Johnson all clamouring for attention it's really difficult t...
