The ammo in the paper sack .45 ACP. More photos ThanksVery neat old revolver. Agree with @CLT65; looks to be a Mark VI. If it is shaved or not is an important factor. (And if one is going to shoot such a modified one, my understanding is they should be downloaded. I've seen one Webley, in person, bust the barrel latch with standard 240-grain .45 ACP.)
One book you might find interesting if you're looking just for a quick overview is:

Or, tangentially, if I may look anything up for your, at your service. Anywho, 'gratz on the passed down revolver.
Thank you for posting about it. I've only recently come to appreciate British military revolvers. I have an Enfield MkI in 38/200, but one of these days would like to find a MkVI.Thank You both!

Mine is a heavier trigger, but no where near the worst I've ever experienced.View attachment 1042726
My Webley is also shaved. I have been shooting light reloaded .45acp in it for 20+ years. It has the heaviest trigger I have EVER seen. Is everyone else's Webley trigger incredibly heavy or is it just mine?
I am going to have to disassemble mine some day and see what is going on in there. It feels like someone might have put in a REALLY heavy replacement spring.Mine is a heavier trigger, but no where near the worst I've ever experienced.
I've owned at least one Webley and two Enfield revolvers. Neither featured the greatest triggers, nor the worst. The 1895 Nagant revolver and almost every derringer I've ever shot was significantly more obnoxious in this department.Is everyone else's Webley trigger incredibly heavy or is it just mine?
Thank you, my Webley trigger is noticeable more stiff than my Nagant revolver, but without the weird release when the cylinder in the Nagant slides backwards after firing.I've owned at least one Webley and two Enfield revolvers.
