@craigh937 The Webley-Fosbery might be insanely difficult to track down, but standard Webley Mk IV or VI revolvers are still plentiful. Expect to pay an insane amount for a quality antique firearm though.
@craigh937 They are no longer made. They do surface from time to time in the collector firearms market. You have to walk a lot of gun show aisles to find one though! -- Jim
@NFMCurator Are the guns they make to today any better then the guns from the past, I mean I think I would love to still shot with a M1918 BAR or a Thomson. I mean They could still make the gun with modern rounds 7.62×51mm NATO/5.56×45mm NATO OR 9mm/.22 LR.
What a great informative clip. I've seen 'The Maltese Falcon' many times and is one of the best films noir. I am reading the book for the first time in probably ro years and just had to investigate the Webley-Fosbery. This clip is as good as it gets a far information is concerned.
Well done !!

John Huston directed it not John Ford as he first said.

a nice prequel to another obscure revolver, the Mateba semi-auto revolver, both in my mind should have more screen love in Hollywood in my book.
