The gun is typical of Webley-bult Army & Navy boxlocks. It is not a high-quality gun but will be properly constructed from good materials.

What do the proof marks tell you about the chamber length?

Teh US is full of guns with extended chambers - I saw a Purdey pigeon gun on my last visit - extended to 3" (unknown to the owner) from the original 2 1/2". It may not be an issue there but it makes the gun illegal to sell in the UK unless and untill it has been re-proofed.


The proof marks will tell the original dimensions - post a photo of the barrel flats if you can.
