Unusual not to have a lanyard ring.


This is the .38 MK IV, numbered in their commercial series. I thought from your title it'd be a .455 military MK IV. Don't see a lot of those now. Or, of these commercial .38's!


Have you shot it yet? That's a nice looking gun.


I recall an old TV series where the cops in Hong Kong had those, and have seen them in British movies with colonial police in Kenya. I've seen just one with wooden grips. Seemed original.


I think they were mostly replaced in UK and Australian service by S&W M-10s.
