Now, that makes a lot of sense to me. My interests abound in postwar revolvers so your take on them perfectly fits my earlier thesis. I have one prewar revolver (1939) and a lettered Victory Model, everything else is postwar so my personal habit leads to my opinion on lettering. Thanks for expanding my horizons on the value of prewar letters.
