This RIC No.1 revolver, serial number 34929 is chambered in .476CF. There are numerous types and variations of Webley RIC revolvers. This example is a No.1 New Model which were the first RIC revolvers to utilize both the fluted cylinder and the acorn style extractor rod. In addition to this the New Model revolvers used a different 3 screw lock mechanism in place of the earlier 4 screw variant.
This revolver was made circa 1885 and retailed by W. Jeffery & Son of 12 George St, Plymouth. This was not the famous W.J. Jeffery of shotgun and rifle fame but rather a smaller provincial maker. Brown's British Gunmakers Vol 2 lists a William Jeffery operating at 12 George St, Plymouth, Devon between 1865 and 1917.
