This page encompasses all of the Webley revolver variants that appear on the site.
History
- Webley Mk I - Adopted in 1887, the original Webley Mk I was chambered for a black powder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
- Webley Mk II - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the Mk II had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
- Webley Mk III - In 1897, the Mk III improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
- Webley Mk IV - The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
- Webley Mk V - Adopted in 1913, the Mk V was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
- Webley Mk VI - Adopted in 1915, the Mk VI featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

Webley .38 Mk IV
The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.
In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted that the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the .38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for its design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the Enfield No.2. Its full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

Webley "WP" Pocket Revolver
Webley "WP" ("Webley Pocket") is a series of compact top-break revolvers chambered in .320. The "WP" Hammerless revolver was introduced in 1898, and in 1901 it was supplemented with the "WP" Hammer model. Both models have the same design, generally based on the Webley .455 and .38 revolvers. The main difference of "WP" revolvers from the larger models is the lack of the cylinder to frame lock in front of the cylinder. "WP" revolvers were produced until the late 1930s, with a break for the duration of the WWI. The total output is estimated about 10,000 pieces.
