Re: .38 bore webley
R B Rodda was a retailer in kolkata.They had branches in other cities also.R B Rodda was closed down some 30,40 years ago.They ordered firearms from major British firearm manufactures in big quantities and their name stamped on them.Post some clear pictures with proof marks and other markings on revolver.Mark III didn't had a safety
