Do you know I might be confused about the points on the 702,its a long time ago. I will be speaking to a ex Webley stocker next week so I will ask him.

I don't know whether all 702's had drop points, but the Crawford and Whatley book on Scotts shows a photo of one (p. 72) with drop points. The 712/720/728's, which were basically 702's made for the American market and with the last 2 digits designating the gauge, did have drop points. (I owned a 720, which also had factory 3" chambers--and weighed about 5 3/4 pounds. Needless to say, I never tried any 3" shells in it!)[/quote]
