They recently pulled that on the frame of a certain Eastern European blank/flare gun, where they decided it could also be used on a different model of revolver made by the same company. Only problem is that if you look at the other models, they are also blank/flare guns.
The frame of the 1" flare gun is very flimsy compared to the frame of any webley revolver. I did make an adapter for the 1" barrel to accept .32 blanks. The flare pistol was used in a theatrical production. I never did, nor would I try, to fire actual .32 ammo out of it. I am not sure the frame and stirrup would put up with the recoil of actual rounds for very long.
