== History ==
 
The Webley Mk IV revolver was chambered for .38 S&W and used during World War 2 by the British Armed Forces.  It is outwardly similar to the [[Webley Mk VI]] which was chambered for the larger .455 caliber.
 
The Webley Mk IV was available in several different versions.
There was the '''Target Model''' with a six inch barrel and adjustable target sights and could be had in either the 38 S&W or 22 Long Rifle calibers.
 
There was the '''Duty Model''' which was made with both the five inch and the four inch barrel.
 
There were two '''Pocket Models''' which were available in either 38S&W or 32S&W. There was the '''Overhand Pocket''' with the full size grips and a 3 inch barrel and there was the '''Pocket Model''' which had a small grips and a three inch barrel.
 
The [[Enfield No.2]] revolver was similar to the Webley Mk IV., also in 38 S&W, but it's engineering was different. The Webley and the Enfield are not the same design. Despite outward appearances.
