Where to fing Webley MK VI cylinder

Post by hirohawa » Thu Sep 23, 2010 7:22 pm

Hello

New to the boards, Great site!

I have searched Gun Broker and APex parts but have had no luck finding a replacement cylinder for a MK VI. A cut down to .45 is fine as I know the .455 are impossible to find.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Working on the assumption you are in the US (from the sites sites you mentioned) then I would suggest Numrich Gun parts

Welcome Steve, enjoy the site.
I think that the legality of shipping this kind of part to/from Europe might be a problem as there are lots of restrictions on what and what cannot be sent. :(

Love the site! I didn't know sending just a part was restricted I thought that was only for full firearms.

I did a quick look around at my regular sources. Couldn't find any cylinders as parts. You just have to keep looking. Try a gun show. Lots of odd parts show up at them...although the parts guys often don't know what they actually have I've found out which makes it that much more difficult.

Its very un likely that you will be able to get a cylinder in the UK any cylinders would of been chopped to make them un usable our silly laws makes any thing like that illegal to own.
