So I work at Cabelas here in Reno, NV. It has a "Gun Library" full of old, used guns. One day as i was browsing on my break (as i do almost everyday) i came across this beauty. I couldn't believe my eyes!!! In almost perfect condition was this Webley MK VI. Just sittin there! After careful inspection to see that it was in full working order, I put it on layaway and payed it off over a few months. I'll post more pics later, but for now i just thought i'd share it with a crowd that would truely appreciate thisawesome gun. Attachments:

Thank you all for the compliments. :-)
@ California Jones: It's rechambered for .45 ACP. I use moon clips to hold the bullets in place, since the bullet rim isn't wide enough to catch the edges. I hear there's 45 ammo with a wider rim but i'm content for now.
@ Mr. Fusion: Not at all. I paid $399.99 for it. Suprising for how good of condition it's in.

Hi there! That is an absolutely beautiful Webley!  To post pics, you need to upload them onto a site like Flickr or Photobucket and then surround the image with ![]() & [/IMG]  |

That is a great find. As far as pics I use Photobucket. It's free. You upload your photos. Then you paste the img link here. Cheers, John |

The ammo you are reffering to is called .45 Auto Rim. I wouldn't bother with it. You already have the moon clips (which also act as speed-loaders) plus the .45 ACP is cheaper and easier to find locally. |
