Absolutely superb job - this one turned out great! Is fascinating to see the mechanics and how every gun maker came at the same end objective, from a different direction. The Webley is a beauty. Nice work too on some of the close up/macro video - awesome detail.
So easy on the eye ! It was a real pleasure to watch the operation of this beautiful mechanism ! Thanks ! 🙂And I loved this dark blueing. Your videos keep getting better. 👍👏
Glad to see you using the proper tools and not hacking away at it using hardware store screwdrivers. I have restored bores with a good brushing and even with some pitting and frost they still have surprising accuracy.
i don't know anything about guns, but the algorithm brought me here... and just like an AMSR video, this was so relaxing and satisfying to watch... now i have a new fascination.
I’ve been enjoying your videos for a while but this one was special. Back in the eighties me and my brother accidentally came across our grandfathers service revolver exactly the same as this Webley so awesome to see this one restored and fired, thank you so much 😊
The best thing about this restoration you did was dismantling and paying attention to the revolver drum, I've seen other videos where they only clean the outside, congratulations
My question to these 'authentic" restoration channels is this: Where in the world do you keep finding very old weapons in a very similar state of rust practically every week?
Another fine resurrection of a British fire arm. You have a real sense of past with these items, Brandon. I guess even schooling on how to restore these, methods of rebuilding are the key to the completion. All the best to you, and your family in 2024. See you on the next! 😊
Love your videos!! They are 100% authentic and you do one hell of a job restoring these old guns! Thank you for these great videos & warm greetings from South Africa!
broke my heart seeing a webley in that state, so glad you fixed that beauty up, webleys are just the best revolver out there edit: plus the mark six webley to me is the dream gun, feels right in the hands, sturdy as a brick wall
Awesome! another video! What a beaut of a revolver. I dig the black look. we have a rusty winchester 22 from around the 60's in a rusty condition. spent far too long in the damp basement... gives me some motivation to clean her up.
Nice work as always! Just a couple of things, did you check the cylinder timing? .455 Webley MkVI's aren't made to handle the chamber pressures of 45, top strap break action revolvers aren't the strongest frames and you're supposed to down load your own 45 to the .455 chamber pressures. 45 ACP is a good few CUP more than factory .455's this was made for.
I love the old 445...when my parents moved into their first home after Dad came home from WW2, they found a Webley 445 behind the brickwork in the loft. I remember my Dad had it until I went into the Army in 1983 but after that it went missing...it was rusted tight and still had three used cartridges in the cylinder and was hung on Dads workroom wall for ages.
That is indeed a truly beautiful thing! I'm a Brit 🇬🇧 and in 1997 when handguns guns were banned here I had to make a choice. Do i get my Great Grandfathers service pistol deactivated (a gun i target shot every week) or hand it in. I handed it in and it was destroyed, but what is the point of a lifeless chunk of metal 😞 I'm sure he would have hated what this country has become........
There is a saying in the good ole US of A: “When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.” Too bad about the ignorant people destroying Britain. I lived in west London for 2 years.
Very nice job on the restoration. Former co-worker had an experience with one of those. Unfortunately, he was on the wrong end. He was security, and a not so nice guy, wanted past. Pulled the Webley. The guards were told in case of this type of gun, jam your hand into the hammer, however you could. Guy kept firing. Not a single bullet was shot. He showed me the scars from the firing pin point piercing his skin, between the thumb and forefinger (Pointer.) Little dots that were from infection from the gun.
I love these videos... they are the perfect combination of skill, artistry, and zen. I look forward to each video. And I love the fragmentation grenade just sitting there ! Happy New Year to you all.
Thank you for sharing your skills and knowledge! Well done....... Over the years restored my Grandfathers model 11 Remington/Browning 12 gauge that was bought used in early 1900's. And a Colt Woodsman. Both shoot well and proud additions! Now have Mouse Milk and ordering CLP SP4 Grease today and drip bottle. Love Amazon.
Perfection again Brandon , great to see the old looking like new again , great target shooting , wishing you a happy New Year from Queensland , Australia .
Nice job as always. If nobody else has mentioned it, the 'head to head' Ordnance Arrow markings (on the left side of the barrel and frame), signify 'Sold out of Service', meaning that the pistol was put on to the civilian market by the War Department. Good vid, I enjoy watching you guys work.
Impressive how well that mouse milk works. Notice how the plastic grips are almost indestructible. I remember reading that the break-open style fell out of favor because it would rather easily misalign and prevent proper opening and closing of the mechanism. Pity - it would be much faster for speed loads. Beautiful restoration. It's a gorgeous looking gun now.
Excellent reconditioning, attractive dark, matt finish. It will still be a loyal sidearm in 100yrs if someone just oils it every so often and doesn't store it underwater!👍👍
Amazing. You forget how many little parts a revolver has compared to a semi automatic. I had a Webley Mark 1, the cylinder was also cut down for .45 ACP. I used a cartridge that I doubt you could even find now, the .45 Auto Rim.. Designed for use in .45 revolvers. It was a lighter charge, I believe. The .455 Webley cartridge is of much less pressure than the .45 ACP It is recommended that you hand load .45 ACP to a lower pressure for use in these Webleys.
Wow this is really cool every time i see a new video I learn about history of the world wars. I appreciate that you do significant firearms. Must be hard to find as welll
One suggestion to help with the process: leave the gun in boiling water before attempting to work the action. This will convert some of the red iron oxide (rust) into black iron oxide (bluing), making the gun significantly easier to work with. Backyard Ballistics has an excellent video series about this.
I just subscribed to you. I like your videos. You do great work! But please do another finish on something that's not hot blued. Some of these guns would be absolutely beautiful if you nickel plated them.
Absolutely superb job - this one turned out great! Is fascinating to see the mechanics and how every gun maker came at the same end objective, from a different direction. The Webley is a beauty. Nice work too on some of the close up/macro video - awesome detail.
Thank you very much, we appreciate the support!

The best part of this channel is that not only do you restore guns, you also test fire as well…..
Great video
Love the work. Watching these revolvers get restored for some reason makes me want to watch old Western films.
Thanks we appreciate it! Ya that'll do it! Thanks for watching
Seeing an old rusted gun and watching it be restored and used again is satisfying to me
I really enjoy it myself too, thanks for watching!
One of the best Webley restoration videos I've seen. Great to see a classic British revolver brought back to life 😊
Thank you for the kind words and for watching we appreciate it!
I have a Webley MK VI in mint condition I love it. It was my fathers service revolver. It will be passed down for many generations. Thank you
That's awesome, thanks for watching!
Well said
Love this channel! Wish I lived in a country that this was possible to do
Germany?
Thank you very much, maybe someday! Thanks for watching
I used to feel like this until I moved to the US. It really does suck having a passion for something you cant pursue
Really?? The Backyard Ballistics channel is from England. They do the same thing.
as a gunsmith if gun laws in m'y country are evolving in a bad way for us i might maybe move to the US probably in the south.
The man is good. The right tools. The proper chemistry. I cant imagine any better result.
Thank you very much we appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching
I love these old revolvers they just have that classic look to them that new guns can't replicate.
Ya they are awesome, thanks for watching!
Stunning weapon … a unique revolver … brilliantly restored … 🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Absolutely, thanks for watching!
So easy on the eye ! It was a real pleasure to watch the operation of this beautiful mechanism ! Thanks ! 🙂And I loved this dark blueing.
Your videos keep getting better. 👍👏

Welcome, thank you very much! Thanks for watching
FANTASTIC as always. Love the fact you actually show them being fired.
I’ve been enjoying your videos for a while but this one was special. Back in the eighties me and my brother accidentally came across our grandfathers service revolver exactly the same as this Webley so awesome to see this one restored and fired, thank you so much 😊
Thank you for the support we appreciate it! Thanks for the story and for watching!
Awesome job! Mark VI is my favorite revolver in Battlefield 1 and Battlefield V.🥰
Thanks, that's cool! Thanks for watching
I have a new appreciation for this handgun
Ya it's a beautiful revolver!
I like this channel because the guy doesn't try to be an internet star. He lets his work do the talking for him.
Thanks Ronald, we appreciate you!
The best thing about this restoration you did was dismantling and paying attention to the revolver drum, I've seen other videos where they only clean the outside, congratulations
Thanks, ya we clean it all!
I've always liked the look of these revolvers, they look so cool and unique.
Ya they are definitely unique, thanks for watching
gotta love the only AUTHENTIC gun restoration channel on youtube!
Thank you we appreciate it, thanks for the support!
Backyard ballistics is pretty authentic
My question to these 'authentic" restoration channels is this: Where in the world do you keep finding very old weapons in a very similar state of rust practically every week?
@@charlesm7589 Simple, he has a business. He gets sent these by customers. Also probably has a catalog pre recorded to release when he wants.
The Mark IV was always my favorite revolver.
Ya it's really cool!
1917, the condition of this revolver is fantastic, excellent work friend
Thank you very much, thanks for watching
