One advantage of having gone West almost 40 years ago (when it was easy!!) is that I now have cut (3) (0.45ACP) and uncut (1) (0.455) Mk VIs, 4 X Mk IVs in 0.38/200 three Enfields (Mk 1, 1* and 1**)in 380/200 and a couple of S&Ws in the same calibre plus a beautiful 0.455 S&W Mk II and to top it off, just picked up an Inglis HP No2 Mk 1. Great advantage to having a C&R FFL. Dave_n (PS my sister loves to have me take photos of her shooting some of these as she is a magistrate in the UK and uses the photos to "scare the plod")

That's a nice looking Webley as well, sir.

Unfortunately, I've yet to find a nice one... :(

Just got my first, 'fixed' to use .45acp. Not much finish on it but the price was right.

Just remember to use downloaded .45 ACP or .45 Auto-Rims to prevent it from shooting ammo that is too hot for it to handle. The .45 ACP ball load is basically a proof level load as it compares to the .455 Webley.
