DA only what?  Though I suspect you are looking at an Enfield No 2, commonly mislabled as a Webley, and those cannot be converted back to DA/SA.  Much harder to get parts for than a real Webley.  DA only Webleys are virtually unknown.  (found it, yep, that's an Enfield, you do not want that.  the Webley just above it is much better.)

This is a very good BIN price, especially with the extras.  In Snowflake AZ.

The Webley MK IV is a Victorian match eligible revolver, as it is identical in form and function to a line of target gripped small frame Webleys that go back to the mid 1890s.  The Enfield is not eligible for anything we do, unfortunatly.

That does look like a gooden only about 550 reasons not to buy it right now
Cleaned up the Colt today, was super filthy in bore and chamber think someone shot up a few boxes of shells and did not clean it.  Cleaned up ok good rifling but dark bore, will see how it shoots one day once it cools a bit here in AZ or just go early and sweat.

I'd buy it for that price.  Might offer $450 to see if he'd move, but MK IVs are starting to move up now that the .455s are getting very pricy.

But I hear it's a Dry Heat . . .
Oh yeah it is, but it's still heat. It's probably more comfortable at 118 than it is in Nebraska at 100, but if I lived out there, I'd have to buy a camelback and just carry water around with me.  ::)

About all that is left is Nagant as the broomhandle mauser is just too expensive and I dont want a nambu as I would have to buy a rifle.  I have a american eagle swiss luger but my K31 is not old enough and I really dont want the 1911 swiss

WHAT, every one doesn't?  Ordered a thermal scope for mine.  This ought to be the ultimate Texas hog gun when I get everything put together.
