Videos tagged with Webley 1910

The Webley Model 1910 was a rare British semi-automatic pistol, produced in limited numbers around 1,000 units. It featured an innovative locked-breech design where the chamber acted as the locking lug, a concept now common in modern firearms. Despite its high quality and unique V-spring recoil system located in the grip, it failed to gain traction against the British preference for revolvers.

This video focuses on a rare prototype Webley Model 1910 pistol, with fewer than 1,000 units ever produced. The description highlights its purpose to attract military and police interest in Webley's .38/9mm automatic offerings. It notes that despite testing by organizations like the London Metropolitan Police, it was never officially adopted. A key unique feature discussed is the absence of a grip safety, which was standard on other Model 1910s.
