I had a 32 S&W caliber Webley made in Afganhistan that a friend smuggled back when he returned from working over there. He had visited the village where they were making Webleys, Enfields, and several other types of firearms. All the work is done on hand operated machinery. It was an extremely well done copy, even down to the Webley trademark on the grips. Sold it recently at a gunshow to a collector of Webleys. I told him what it was and the story behind it, that I personally knew the guy who brought it to the US. He informed me that I was wrong, he could tell it was a genuine Webley because of the trademark on the grips! Go figure!
