Ok guys, finally got around to doing some more research and found out a few things.

It isn't a Webley after all, it appears to be a Enfield No. 2 Mk 1* manufactured in 1942.

It's covered in British Proof stamps, and a couple of other markings. Seems to be in original condition, and if it matters at all, matching numbers.

I'm still reading up in my spare time, but I've caught passing mention of safety concerns regarding these revolvers, but no mention of SPECIFIC concerns. Any help there would definitely be appreciated. Now that I actually know what I have, more research should be easier. Any help or advice you guys have is still appreciated, and pictures should be coming soon!
