From the Vault: Webley & Scott .455 Self-Loading Pistol
It's blocky and chunky and very rectangular - and it came out almost 70 years before Glock® made those aesthetics cool. It's the Webley & Scott Self-Loading Pistol Model of 1913, the British answer to the Colt 1911. Brownells Gun Techs and historic firearm aficionados Keith Ford and Steve Ostrem are back at Rock Island Auctions to show us a beautiful example of this fairly rare semi-auto. It's chambered in the .455 Webley Auto Mk I cartridge that's roughly equivalent to the .45 ACP load of the period, and it is, as Steve accurately characterizes it, a "big, honking combat pistol". Model 1913 .455 Pistols saw service with Royal Navy and the Royal Flying Corps (later the RAF) in both world wars, while the British Army stuck with their tried-and-true Webley revolvers. The guys walk us around the features, functions, and quirks of the Model 1913. It is a simple, robust, reliable design with a 7-round magazine, and it is beautifully machined, fitted, and finished. Despite its blocky contours and straight up grip, it rests comfortably in the hand and it points naturally.
