It's based on Nagant's revovers. Whether it was made by the Nagant Bros, I don't know. It appears to have a Liege mark on the back of the cylinder (third photo, about 11 0'clock) but that's about all I can tell you. Are you sure it's .32 S&W?

What kind of info are you looking for specifically?
They were a common model and were copied by a number of firms in different countries.
Genuine British Bulldogs in decent shape can be worth a few hundred dollars but I've never seen one priced over $450.
They're an interesting piece of history but not particularly rare. If you intend to shoot it you should probably have a smith check it first.

What I’m interested in is a manufacturer date and if it’s a FW,other manufacturer or Webley.
It’s definitely a .32s&w.

I would bet the caliber is in fact .320 cf which is similar but uses a heeled bullet that is the diameter of the case. Ive never heard of one of these being chambered in .32s&w. Do the chambers have throats or are they bored straight through?
