"Another point is that the first Webley rated for smokeless powder was the MK IV (Mk 4). I have heard that one might find a earlier MK gun that someone shaved the cylinder on, and have also heard of MK 1-3 guns that were refitted with Mk IV cylinders by someone. I would not shoot any of those guns with smokeless powder, even at Webley standard pressures. Just simply not worth the risk."
Over the years several posters here have come here with early Webley revolvers so altered, asking for advice on what they should shoot in them.
My uniform answer is... don't shoot them.
