Differences between Webley MK III, MK II and MK I

[dingus]

So, what's involved with fitting a MK V cylinder to a MK I or MK II frame? Does this require modifications to the original frame or anything else that requires additional parts or special tools?

The guns were talking about were done at the webley factory in 1914 so not exactly sure how they did it but there is some altering so the MKV cylinder will shut on the MKI frame.

Thanks. MK V pistols sell pretty cheap, so if it was not too tough to make the swap, it might be worth the trouble. I'm also wondering if a MK V cylinder differs substantially from a MK VI cylinder. The MK VI pistols come up for a few hundred dollars. Maybe I'll have to buy a MK V and a MK VI and have a look.
