I have been collecting Victory Models for a few years now, and have found six so far, a blued 5" .38 S&W Pre-Victory with British acceptance marks, a 5" .38 S&W British Lend Lease Victory, a 5" .38 S&W Australian Lend Lease Victory, a 4" .38 Special Victory marked "Frankfurt Railway Police", a 4" .38 Special Navy marked Victory, and a 4" .38 Special DSC Victory that shipped to Great Northern Paper Company in Millinocket, Maine in December 1942.

I have in mind to get a New Zealand and South African Victory Model to round out my collection. I understand New Zealand Victories will have "NZ" on the back strap, how do you identify a South African Victory Model? I have heard they will be in .38 S&W Caliber, and may have 4" barrels. Any other identifying marks?

Any other countries I may be missing to round a collection of Victory Models?

Thanks,
