Gentlemen, There's a Webley-Fosbery on Gunbroker for the low, low price of $17,500. Someone want to buy it and let me shoot it?!
If that's too rich for you, there's a much cheaper one available on Gunbroker for $16,995.
Let us know how it shoots and be sure to post pictures.
At bargain prices like that, maybe I should buy both!
I've actually fired one - it's very 'different'...
It reminded me of shooting a Longslide .45 back in the day - a long, slow recoil akin to un-coupling a railroad boxcar.
Scouts Out!

Slim
I might imagine the feel of the "high" bore axis, Though I've never had the pleasure of handling one.
I would add it to my bucket list :)
Am I the only one thinking
"These Fosberries taste like Fosberries!"???
Yeah, i thought so. I know I am weird.
Oh, that is a reach for a long slide ::) ;D
What ever happened to Pakistani that was going to make new Fosbery revolvers?
It certainly has a unique recoil impulse. I paid 9500.00 for mine 5 years ago. I'll probably get it out this year for my Rorkes Drift impression i do at my cas clubs shoot in January. Haven't shot it in a while.
