    A artistic stand for a early Webley pistol

    Simple artistic stand made specifically for a straight grip Webley. Sure beats a box? Shows off the pistol as a work of art that it is?

    That’s great - certainly beats a bent piece of acrylic. Very stylish.

    Thats an 'in period' looking practical work of art. Nicely done. It displays the pistol without detracting from it.

    Very tasteful, Steve. Perfectly in proportion and neither too fancy nor too plain. Just right!

    Perhaps a manufacturing opportunity?

    Surprising to me that it was made for such an old pistol? Such a narrow market?

    Would it work with other pistols too?

    I wouldn't mind a stand like that for my one remaining Wood Grip Mk.1, nicely engineered.

    Not really, sold as stand for Webley Mark1 pistol. Had a similar style but make to fit a Webley Hurricane. Made with such precision would only fit specific pistols.
