Re: strange looking 32 Webely & scott
Don't know too much about obscure W&S revolvers...but it appears to be a variation of the Webley&Scott "W.P" .32 pocket revolver- available in Hammer and hammerless - This one, obviously being the latter (actually concealed hammer rather than hammerless)art_collector wrote:Just saw this strange looking webley & Scott 32 bore..

RB Rodda&Cos 1930 centenary catalog lists the one with a longer 3 inch barrel at Rs.95!
Interesting anyway
... of course one can notice the amusing Indian penchant of sticking a lanyard swivel in even the smallest pistol!

Make sure none of the IOF people see this...they'll probably think it worth copying and inflict it on the poor unsuspecting public...tingriman wrote:Very interesting, I have seen revlover of this design/shape for the first time, thanks for sharing.

This is the Webley .320 Pocket Hammerless Revolver. These were manufactured between 1901 - 1936.
