Product Information

A rare British made Webely-Bentley percussion double action, open frame self-cocking revolver Circa 1860. In 1857 Joseph Bentley held a patent for a Double Action Revolver with only very few ever being produced by Bentley himself. However, he did make an agreement with a small group of Birmingham Gunmakers to produce and sell them for him on a commission sale bases. This example is beautifully engraved with its original chequered Walnut wooden grips and finish, and British proof markings to barrel and cylinders. Marked on the top of the octagonal barrel "Patent Central Fire Revolver". Interestingly it is chambered in .31, most being chambered in larger calibres. Also worth noting that small numbers of Webley-Bentley revolvers were used during the US Civil War. The action is still fully functional and indexes each time it cycles. This revolver is chambered in an obsolete calibre and can therefor be owned live without any form of license.
