Webley Holster - Brass Button

Post by bearbeast »

I want to make a holster for the Webley MKVI.

Can anyone tell me the diameter of the two brass buttons used on the holster? I need to order them, but do not know the size...

The diameter of the base would be most helpful, because that is the ordering info. But if not, also the knob diameter would be excellent.

Thanks in advance,

Well, I ended up gettting 7, 8 and 10 mm. I will see which looks better and use those.

Will make a post with pics for it. :TOH:

In my experience anything smaller than 12mm on a full-sized holster just doesn't look right to my eye. :TOH:

Ohhh, no... That's bad news for me... The biggest they had was 10 mm and the holster for the webley is a big one...

There are some stores in Germany that have bigger ones, but the shipping is 20 times the price for the buttons...

Thanks for the info! I'll have to see what I do. They are threaded on, so perhaps I can switch them later on... Arghhh... ](*,)
