Webley Mk IV – Boer War Edition

The Webley revolver is one of those rare objects where design, history, and identity merge into a single silhouette.
Few sidearms are as instantly recognizable — the top-break frame, the broad extractor hinge, the heavy British lines.
It was not just a weapon, but a symbol of an empire at its turning point.

At the dawn of the 20th century, during the Boer War, the Webley Mk IV was already a veteran design.
Carried by officers, cavalrymen, and explorers, it embodied the practical toughness of the period — reliable, solid, and utterly British.
It was there in South Africa, in the dust and heat, long before the First World War made its successors famous.

In cinema, the Webley often appears as a shorthand for authority and adventure.
It hangs at the hip of colonial officers, detectives, and adventurers — from Zulu and The Man Who Would Be King to countless historical dramas and television series.
Its slow, deliberate mechanics photograph beautifully: the hinge breaking open, the cylinder tilting forward, the soft clink of brass.
It’s a revolver that seems designed for film — dramatic, distinctive, and deeply tied to the storytelling of its era.

The Boer War Edition recreates that specific historical moment — the last Victorian revolver, standing at the edge of modernity.
This detailed 3D-printed replica captures the spirit and presence of the original while remaining simple to assemble and safe to handle.
