New catalog in the mailbox today. Check it out.

Looks nice. I can't read a description on my mobile. Do you know if it's all metal?

Collectors Armoury® Webley Break-Top Revolver Replica; Non-firing Replicas with moving parts... holding one is like going back in history!; Solidly made of wood and steel, with heft like the real thing!; Amazingly realistic detail!

A well-trained soldier is a successful soldier. These gorgeous Replicas are all meticulously reproduced, non-firing recreations of some of the finest firearms in history. Each features authentic detail, moving parts and accurate action. They're perfect for collectors, parades, film projects, re-enactments and much more.

Magnificent mock-ups:

Authentic look
All the heft and detail of the originals
Wood and metal construction
Revolving chambers, removable magazines and more.

At that price I think I'll order one just to see how nice it is.

Be forewarned that is a MKIV (4) model not a MKVI (6). The MK4 were chambered for .38 and much smaller than the Webley Indy carried. The MK4 are more in size with a standard S&W revolver.

Indeed. I have one of these MKIV .38 replicas. It's fun and opens and the shells pop out but it really isn't the right Webley. It fits perfectly in the Raiders holster. If you want to see pics just ask. It's still a fun replica for the price. It's also the Jack Harkness revolver from the Doctor Who spinoff (who also uses a Raiders style holster), and works for some British re-enactment or replica uniforms from the late 19th century to the end of WWI.

Thanks fellas


I thought something, besides the missing bird's head grip, looked off. I still might get one if only to use as a holster stuffer.

Still a good choice for that use, SJ. Only hard core Indy gearheads know the difference.

Actually the MkIV was used up through WWII and even by police forces thereafter in some countries. The MkIV remained in service until 1963 alongside the Enfield No. 2 Mk I revolver (which was almost completely identical, except for being made by a different manufacturer).

Thanks fellas. I almost bought the 1917 kokopelli has on sale in the bazaar but decided that I really prefer the blued finish to the parkerised one. This will fill the holster well enough until I find the real deal.

I know you're not looking for advice, but just the same, if it were me I'd go for the 1917 myself. Finishes can be changed, and that one is an excellent example.

Just sayn'.....

Thanks M.

I'll send you a pm rather than derail this thread.
