Description:
A rare, early, circa 1871 Webley Pryse 6 cylinder .455 beautifully fitted with a folding steel blade. It has British proofs on the cylinder and barrel. Marked, Joint Patents, Stanton & Co. numbered C 45572. The folding blade mechanism is quite ingenious and it functions flawlessly. The blade has never been sharpened. The Pryse levers lock the cylinder up tight as a drum. It indexes perfectly. The barrel rifling is strong. The grips show very little wear. The lanyard ring is tight. Lots of blue remain on the body and the folding blade release. It comes in a fitted box with a Blanch trade label and box of ammunition. The barrel is marked, British Army Revolver. This might have been a prototype created at the request of a British officer heading to the various conflicts during that time period. Beautifully made.
