===Boer War=== The Webley Mk IV, chambered in .455 Webley, was introduced in 1899 and soon became known as the "[[Second Boer War|Boer War]] Model",<ref>{{harvnb|Maze|2002|p=44}}</ref> on account of the large numbers of officers and [[non-commissioned officers]] who purchased it on their way to take part in the conflict. The Webley Mk IV served alongside a large number of other handguns, including the [[Mauser C96|Mauser C96 "Broomhandle"]] (as used by [[Winston Churchill]] during the War), earlier [[Beaumont–Adams revolver|Beaumont–Adams]] cartridge revolvers, and other top-break revolvers manufactured by gunmakers such as [[William Tranter]], and [[Kynoch]].{{citation needed|date=October 2020}}
