Dating a Webley
I know it's not an airweapon but think this is still probably the best place to ask about a Webley flare pistol I've been offered. Brass-bodied with the flying pellet motif. Serial no. is 137211. The would-be vendor carried it on his yacht for many years ( And so will I - just as soon as I get one! ) and claimed he once fired it at the bridge of a supertanker which was threatening to run him down off the coast of Sumatra. That could have gone wrong in so many ways. I wonder if we'd have heard the big bang here.
Mods please note - no intention to offend* and please move this wherever appropriate if necessary.
