I currently have 2 HP's. I have a 1943 made during German occupation which was in very bad shape when I got it and I did my best to save it. The other is a Tisas BR9 clone which I have customized to be my EDC.

Similar Markings I have this BHP which was made by the Germans when they took over FN plant during WW2. It was in sad shape when I bought it so I carefully polished it so not to remove markings then rust blued it. BTW it was made in 1942

Good info. Thanks

S&W Victory I just received a S&W Victory with British Proof marks. SN V258812, 38 S&W, marked United States Property. All numbers matching.

Nice Holster. I have a very similar one which came with a revolver I bought from a friend. I believe it is an M&P 1905, 2nd change made between 1906 and 1909. It was owned by a relative of my friends who was a railroad detective in Wyoming.

Thank you all for your good info. I really hadn't planned on buying this revolver because I didn't think he wanted to sell it. It had been his wife's uncles gun which he carried when he was a railroad detective in Wyoming. I was surprised when he said would sell it and although I am not a big...

Where do you get the info that gun is of little or no value? From what I see the gun in 90% condition is worth $1050 or is the Blue Book wrong? Thanks for your reply. Aggie Bill

Greetings, I am new to the sight and make my home in San Angelo, TX. I consider myself as a very amateur gunsmith and enjoy minor work on guns I'm familiar with. A friend brought me a S&W 38 special he wanted info on. It is SN 120XXX, 4" barrel, 38 S&W Special ctg., hand ejector fixed sights, 5...
