Sold a P Webley to Mike back in 2012. He still has it. The stock was cracked. Somehow, it got better. GB 844981553.

A few pictures from today of 83621 in natural light, pretty amazing gun!! Light cleaning with a Frontier pad, still has some brown tint but the CC does show.

Just to close to loop on this gun. As I stated it had a crack at the wrist from the top tang down to the trigger guard on one side. The gun was originally fitted with the hickory rod and that keep it together. I did not want to soak the wood to de-oil it to glue the crack (and lose the original finish and character) so Brian Dudley suggested a carbon fiber 3/8" rod be inserted up through the pistol grip cap past the crack, glassed in place. I couldn't be happier the gun is now completely stable with zero movement.
