    Not your typical case for a Webley Service

    I bought this case years ago and never used it. I love figured wood and the combination of the curly maple and the mahogany looked pretty cool. I think this case is not your typical case for a 1930’s Webley Service but hard not to use it. I’ve cased guns before makes for a interesting project. Given I have two barrels a case is really helpful. It does match this glossy refinished stock? I can hear you conservative Englishmen screaming already. Lol

    Umm, well, it will be easy to spot which one’s yours anyway

    Nice case. Not really my taste but so what.
    Morally flawed

    Gonna look good when the inside is blocked and lined. Kind of thing Hemmingway or Teddy Roosevelt would have had to accompany him for some ratting on a fishing trip.

    Sorry but it don't look like a case to put a Webley Service for me. much to modern looking. try converting an old Brady shotgun case more in keeping.l have done a few. but a nice find that Service over there.

    Does not do it for me...too much like a coffin for a Christian funeral....

    But, if you are happy, enjoy....

    Instead of compartments and felt I’m thinking of using gray foam like a modern case, that should really loose you guys. But easy and maximum protection.
