I owned a Webley-Fosbery Automatic Revolver of a few weeks a long time ago. Eight shot .38 ACP with a 7.5 inch target barrel. Pretty cool gun, in an incredibly foppish sort of way.

As everyone knows, Miles Archer was shot with a .38 Webley-Fosbery, and Zed carried one in Zardoz (although his looks like a .455)

My favorite revolver that I still own is a Webley Mk II that has the cylinder shaved to take .45ACP in half-moon clips. It's a first rate revolver and a damned fine club.

I'd hate to pick a favorite, but my Ruger SP101 is at least tied for first place. It also happens to be the only gun I have a picture of:

I love that royal blue on the pythons but I'll take the S&W trigger over a python's any day. Here's my favorite a 29-2. A little dusty in the photo with a factory test target, fresh from being "misplaced" by UPS for a couple of days(or was it FEDEX?).

Lol. You need to take some pics.
I love Webleys! The Museum i worked at in Ontario had one in their Gun collection, a mark VI in .455. I never got to fire it of course (lol) but i did get to "fondle" it while cataloging/photographing the collection. They are a lot more comfortable/ergonomic than they look!

Here's the Mk II. It looks pretty much like the Mk VI, except it has a four inch barrel while the Mk VI has a six in barrel, and the Mk II has a bird's head butt while the Mk VI has a square butt. The Mk II was made from 1894-1897.

And this is the only other Webley I currently own. It's a .38 Mk IV, and it's one of the last 250 revolvers Webley made.

Although not my favorite revolver, at least not yet, below is a photo of one of my S&W 500 Magnum revolvers, specifically the S&W 500 Performance Center with 7.5-inch barrel and unfluted cylinder wearing Nill grips and a scope:

I MUST HAVE THAT GUN!!!!!!! . . . Holy oinkin' Yowza!!!!!. . . That is flugin' AWESOME!!!!

There's a tradewind of nuclear proportions blowing your way. . . .

Sweet!

I still have some slides i took of the museums collection. I really need to get a slide scanner.
For a small museum they had a neat little collection.
Besides the Webley there was a Mauser Broomhandle pistol, a long barreled Luger artillery model, Colt New Service .455 Eley, polish Radom 9mm etc plus quite a few long guns from black powder brown Bess's to a WWII M1 carbine.

Lunde,

Thanks for the pics. They look thinner than the ahrends. One of the reasons that I like the pachmayers is because they don't have finger grooves. The only downside to the pachs is that they are made out of rubber and tend to print when you conceal carry. Does nill offer models like yours without finger grooves?

I like the little guys. I have an SP101 in .357 with 3 inch tube and Hogues that I like very much.

Colt Python in .357, JS Carter already posted a nice picture of her.
