Webley box

This is the box my webley .32 Auto came in.

The markings on the side.

Now, sadly, empty after the UK pistol ban.

The pistol had a bit of a rough chamber so was not a very reliable one, except with Norma ammo which it liked.

Regards

The box looks a little sad and forlorn without its contents Peter :(
