It's a 1926 date.
Yes in 455, it is a transitional model 1880(quite rare)not marked WG, and has the Pryse cylinder release mechanism.These guns chambered 450, 455, & 476cas.Don't get me started on that!
I met the gentleman who owns the Webley & Scott rights, patents and plans at this years SHOT Show. Very polite and nice guy.
While they are making mostly shotguns and some .177 pellet guns for the UK market these days, he's very interested in figuring out how to do a run of repro Webley Mk VI's in .455 for the collector market here in the US.
I got an email from him a few weeks ago that he's trying to put together a website to determine interest in the next few months. We'll see what happens.
You'er correct! That 0 should have bee a 6! Good editing skills. The only markings on my gun are Webley Patents, the arrow on the barrel and ser. Nos.
I'd love to see a "new" Webley. But would prefer a more available calibre. The 45 acp would be a perfect fit in the US.
