Webley & Scott

Biography
Webley & Scott is an arms manufacturer based in Birmingham, England. Webley produced handguns and long guns from 1834–1979, when the company ceased to manufacture firearms and instead focused on producing air pistols and air rifles. Recently, however, Webley & Scott have re-started the production of shotguns for commercial sale.

Webley is famous for the revolvers and automatic pistols it supplied to the British Empire's military, particularly the British Army, from 1887 through both World War I and World War II.
