Not sure if that link is any good but it was all I could really find.

My Granddad had a Webley service revolver when he was in the Army in Egypt. Legend has it he shot a Buzzard off the flag pole one evening and on closer inspection it wasn’t a Buzzard. Oops. Good shot for a service pistol though.

I owned and competed with several Webley .455s over many years. The WG was a much better revolver than anything made today. All were accurate at 50yds. The .38 Mk4 that I had was very different. It took over a year to develop a load that it would stay on the target with at 20yds and precise accuracy was still a dream at the time that I had to surrender it to the bunch of criminals running the country.
