Gentlemen,

If you had to make a choice between S&W 34-1 in .22lr, 4 inch barrel, round grip, circa 1977-78 and Webley markIV, B-series, 3 inch barrel, small frame , .32 cal revolver, circa 1978-79, what would it be and why ?

Both firearms are in mint condition and have been inspected by yours truly. No money constraints .

best,
Rp.

Hello DOC,

If you wish to EDC -

As per my experience of every day carry, I think 4 inch is too long for concealed carry however 3 inch is much manageable. Both the guns go BANG when fired - they don't give u misfires like regular IOF stuff. I think Webley 3 inch concealed in the waist band is 1000 times better than S&W 4 inch sitting in the locker...

Moreover it's .32

I have 3 inch S&W and conceals very well.

Best regards

Dear doc sir,
go for s&w. because .22 are accurate in 4 inch barrel & cheap too, use stinger for concealed carry.
