I was able to find a partial case of Webley 455. Fiocchi will not commit to a manufacturing date for more product. It will likely be in 2018.

I thought $60 was expensive. Still, I suppose things are worth whatever people are willing to pay.

Looks like I've doubled my money on my stash..........better than a hot tip in the market! :d
 
Yes the price did go up. Originally we had a skid of it from Fiocchi - thats all that we could get - sold it for $55. When that ran out I had a hundred emails asking about more - I found some from another supplier but not as good a price and only about 4,000 rounds sold for $80 - ran out. Another 100 emails. Found a gun store in the US with 18 boxes - obviously had to pay retail - selling for $99.99. If we don't sell these until 2018 at least we can say that we have some. If you really need some Webley we have it.
So far we have sold 3 boxes.

Good on you for making the effort. I'm sure there is not a huge return for the time involved in getting those 18 boxes into your inventory.

We "weird caliber" guys appreciate it!

How about some 32 S&W? I can get 32acp and 32 Long, but no S&W.

I knew when I hit the enter key that "weird" wasn't the best word to use.
We are working on a new distributor for "harder to get" calibres. Watch CGN and our webstore for updates.
 
Well, weird is probably better than "obsolete ",lol
I'll watch for the new stuff, thanks!
