Yes, I thought that number was later at the time. I've added quite a few Webley built guns to my database since then though. No. 13485 was an early post-war gun, ordered 1919. No. 13017 was an Army & Navy that I'm trying to get records on now. I'm expecting 1910. A delivery date of 1912 for Webley No. 13049 isn't going to be that far wrong. Remember that a boxlock could easily have been ordered for stock, which an entry in the day book usually won't show - you usually get just the sale date.

Based on what we know of it (Webley barreled up the action or their number would not be there), my hunch is that Webley finished it as well, but Lancaster could have. No way to tell for sure absent some detail in Lancaster's journal, as opposed to the day book. One thing for sure, Lancaster was using multiple trade makers for double rifles during this period. I've seen several from this period that were definitely not Webley products.
