Original British WWII Webley & Scott No.4 Mk.1* Long Barrel Signal Flare Pistol - Serial 30498

Regular price $595.00

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available.  This is a nice example of a WWII Webley & Scott No.4 MkI* pattern long-barrel Flare pistol, manufactured by the Webley & Scott firm itself. These were the long variant of the RAF aircraft versions used during WWII.

The pistol itself is of heavy steel construction, and a mixture of machined and cast parts. The barrel itself is cast and then machined on the front and inside, but not the sides, which gives it a rougher look. The left side of the pistol is marked No.4 MK1* over serial number 30498 on the brass trigger guard.. The barrel and frame have numerous British proof marks, as well as the 1 1/2" size emblem.

The design of the pistol has an interesting hammer-block safety, which is engaged using the breech latch, or the slider on the top. Additionally, this example has a brass trigger guard and what appears to be a Nickel and Copper plated frame, which would indicate possible use in the Royal Navy. The amount of corrosion present seems to suggest this as well.

In very nice condition, ready to display.
