And yet, it matters little...
No one recognized 'Olin' as a firearms manufacturer - but they 'do' recognize 'Winchester' - and when 'the factory' gets mentioned - it 'isn't' the Olin operation they recognize.
Geez, Louise - look at Colt and count who's owned them - S&W, too.
Now - going back to the Webley - in specific, the 'Webley-Fosbery'.
I used to think that longslide .45s were 'different' when fired, but the Webley-Fosbery takes the cake, since there's a weird, 'rail-car uncoupling' feeling, but they're unbelievably cool.
As to 'abusing' one - if you're doing that - stop it and sell the piece, but if you're merely shooting it - well, they were built to shoot, so do that - it's not going to hurt it.
Just don't suddenly decide that you're going to 'compete' with it like some SASS-mad shootin' fool - the originals never fired 'that' many in their combat careers...
