Original British WWII Webley No.1 Mk.5 Flare Signal Pistol with Wooden Grip

Item Description

Original Item: Only one available. The No.1 Mk.5 signal pistol closely follows the design of the classic WWI Brass Webley & Scott MkIII* flare pistol, with the distinctive flared muzzle. However instead of brass, for WWII Steel flare pistols were the norm, a much more sturdy metal when used in the field. It is faintly marked on the right side of the frame with PISTOL SIGNAL 10 No1 MK5.

This example is in good condition, with very nice grips with an intact lanyard ring. Interestingly, the material between the grips no longer has a cover, but we’ve unsure if it was just made like this. The pistol still retains some of its original black painted finish, a wartime expedient factory finish which was both inexpensive and durable. The side of the receiver is stamped with SA63 A 16180, likely the serial number. 

Comes ready for further research and display.
