We do not see Victory models often here in Toronto. But I saw one yesterday at an online site and asked for pictures before buying - $150us.

But I would like to know the approximate ship date before concluding the deal. Serial number is V295632

It is a 38 S&W. There is no finish left on the gun.To me, this is how many Victory guns appear in pictures, but i could be wrong.

The lanyard ring is there, but there is no serial number on the butt. The owner says it has been machined off. It is hard to tell from the pictures. I can see no evidence of a serial number or any marks from machining. Is it possible a serial number was not placed there or that a repair might have removed it? I am not familiar with what the SOP would be in this case. There is a serial number marked under the barrel.

It cycles and locks up well.

It says "US Property G.H.D." on the top strap so I am guessing that it was part of the Lend-Lease program.

Bore and cylinders are in good shape. Bore is very shiny.

Thoughts? Age? Value?
