Description:
Serial #82159, .442 CF, 3 1/2" barrel with a fine, bright bore that has some traces of mild freckling within the grooves. This is a nice looking, transitional model revolver that has 85-90% of the original bright blue remaining, and the balance flaked to an even, plum-brown patina. The hammer, trigger, and ejector assembly have some minor freckling in the otherwise armory bright finish. The topstrap is marked: “P. WEBLEY & SON / BIRMINGHAM"; and the left side of the frame has the Webley “Winged Bullet" trademark. Additionally, a Toronto Police Force property mark is engraved on the left side of the frame: “TPF"; while a police inventory number is stamped on the right: “230". The checkered walnut grip is in very good shape with flattening of the points and a few minor handling marks in the oil finish. The lanyard swivel was removed. This very revolver is illustrated on page 94 of “Webley Solid Frame Revolvers – Models RIC, MP, and No. 5" by Black, Davis, and Michaud (2010). This is a very good example of a Canadian police-marked RIC revolver that has been published in a respected reference book. Antique
