Birds head grips
Question for any Webley original or replica owners out there. Is it possible to replace regular webley mk grips with WG birds head grips? Asking for a friend…
Re: Birds head grips
Here are the steps that Brian Helm on Facebook has taken to do just that. I have not tried these steps due to a lack of tools, but if you feel up for it, it seems like a nice modification.

That link doesn't work for me. I assume it takes a fair amount of machining since the frames are not built the same.

Sorry about that, these should work.

Re: Birds head grips
Thanks for posting the pictures. I’m impressed, I wouldn’t have thought a conversion would come out looking that good.

Re: Birds head grips
This is fantastic, I’m definitely going to hit up Brian for some more info and do the same to a webley air pistol!
