Original Item: Only One Available. This is probably only the second time that we have had one of these somewhat impractical flare pistols. Based on the MARK VI Webley Revolver this is the Signal Pistol utilizing 1 1/2″ Flares. It launches this from a massive 10 inch heavy-walled barrel, making the flare gun quite front heavy, but also very impressive looking. With an overall length of 14 1/2 inches, it was really too large to be practical, which is why later 1 1/2 flare designs featured much shorter barrels.

It is marked on the barrel with the date and manufacturer information:

1917
WEBLEY & SCOTT Ltd.
LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM

Next to that, and also above the trigger, it is marked No.1 MARK “I”, indicating this was the first signal pistol of this type they had produced. The serial number 24098 is marked on the underside of the trigger assembly, the barrel, and the barrel lock. Due to the weight, they were not popular, and were replaced by pistols designed from the ground up, as opposed to adapting a revolver design.

Condition is quite good, considering the age. The steel has a nice polished patina of age, and the wooden grips are in very good shape, with a lovely color, though we believe they are replacements. The breech opens correctly, with the ejector presenting, and it locks closed as well. The breech correctly locks when the hammer is cocked in single action mode.

As an added bonus this example comes with an inert spent flare cartridge, which is definitely for the No.1, indicated by its 8 1/2 inch length.

Very heavy steel construction, operates in both double and single action. A rare WWI Signal Pistol ready to display. Totally impressive!
