[edit] Summary
Screenshot "Zulu Dawn" movie picture: Here we see the true life events where Colonel Durnford, (played by Burt Lancaster) who had lost an arm in battle many years previously, regroups the last remaining soldiers into a circle and fights to the death with a revolver, firing and reloading with one arm/hand as thousands of Zulu warriors charge. Durnford is shown using a Webley Mk VI .455 revolver which was not introduced until 1915, so the appearance in the film is an anachronism. However, the British officer of the time was allowed to use any sort of sidearm he wished, as long as it fired .455 ammunition, so Officers often privately purchased Webley top-break revolvers (in 1879 not yet officially adopted for service) somewhat similar in appearance to the Mk VI Webley. These Webley models had been put on the market during the 1870's - such as the Webley-Green Army Model 1879 or the Webley-Pryse Model.
