Well, yes and no. It was a Webley variant...a Fosby/Webley auto revolver. It was a REALLY weird animal that was not exactly a double action revolver, and not exactly an automatic, but it was set up to be a competitor to the semi-automatic pistol in the 1920's. They were made in low numbers, and are extremely expensive on the used gun market. Now you know WAY more than you wanted to. (grins) Regrds. Michaelson
