The Webley RIC was a solid frame DA that was beginning to take hold. It reloaded slow, like a SAA but more clumsily, but it was the late 1870's too. The most likely caliber around Custer was the .442 Webley. The .450 became more popular after his passing. It was not too bad with a .43 (.44 cal.) 200 gr. at about 700 fps. Some Indian sure had a prize for a while! A fancy pistol and long yellow scalp.

Jim and I would have been off on some flat rocks grinding flat tips on them! LOL
