Webley Mk3, .22 cal.


Each piece hand crafted, matched and assembled.

Apparently when production ceased, another manufacturer approached webley for the design and tooling, as they wanted to continue production, and no doubt, make a quick buck.

Webley took them out the back to show them. Design was a set of paper drawings, and the tooling consisted of a bunch of old engineers and a rack of hand tools. No CAD/CAM, no presses or fancy equipment.

For some reason, the sale never eventuated.
