The gun is from very late 1943.
A number of large police departments got some Victorys during the war, but few marked them.
Boston PD is known to have used the B.P.D. marking on the backstrap of their issue revolvers in general, so that could be a suspect. As Muley suggests, a separate thread with good photos of the marking might get someone to recognize the style of marking.
