New to forum, issued a 38 spl revolver in 1966 at Malstrom AFB MT.
I'm assuming it was a victory model but don't know for sure and didn't really care back then as long as it fired.

Just acquired a victory and after reading 100's of post I have a question maybe some one could answer.

The distribution of the victory models with serial numbers very close to each other going to different places, army, navy, allies, and used for security at many different facilities here in US.
Example:

Serial # 5004441 going to Army marked property of US
5004330 going to Navy marked Navy
5005998 going to factory in US for security purposes

Was distribution random with no real sequence followed?


Thanks, Great forum
