| It seems that kits made by ADVEN reach quite high prices. They make quite a few models, looks like they're in metal: http://adven2.ocnk.net/product-list/16Do you have any experience with these kits? | |

| Hi Smootik. Just saw your post. Is this a kit for a Webley pistol, and how much does it cost? http://adven2.ocnk.net/product/410Interested in getting one if possible! Cheers John Anthony | |

| This seems to be a cylinder for Webley (ウエブリ) revolver. Price given on page is 9800 yen (円 is a symbol for yen), over 100$. | |

| Yuk! That IS expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is that the only Webley part they make? Would it easily replace the Marushin Enfield cylinder? | |

| Sorry to tell you Smootik that these Adven 文鎮 means "Paper Weight" - if I understand correctly, these guns are made as decorative paper weights (in case you wonder why these full metal pistols can be exempted from gold plating)... Since these are paper weights so these are completely dummies as well ... | |
