One of the same marks & 480 are also stamped on the rear of the cylinder. Can anyone confirm Austria and where it might have been sent?

Hello, I know this is an old thread, but does anyone have any insight on what the “ 1 ein “ stands for?
I have a pre-lend lease British Service Revolver (or .38/200 pre-victory, 38 S&W 1905 4th change, however the best way to describe it is), under the barrel it has what looks like “ 1 ein “ and “ V8 - P “ the P might be an A, difficult for me to tell.
I don’t see any other post factory marks.
I know some BSR’s were issued to Austrian police post WWII, not that it’s necessarily an Austrian police mark, but going by the other firearm having Austrian proof marks. Or maybe it’s an import mark?
Any help or a direction to look in would be greatly appreciated.
