It is a Mark IV as you mentioned and marked 'War finish'. 38 S&W. Really a fun bunch of guns. Thanks to everyone for the great and educational input. The thing I really appreciate about this forum is that you get real, informative answers from knowlegeable people.

Texas Star, here are the photo's of the Webley and the Lebel. Enjoy!

Thanks, it says '55'. The individual I got these from collects military guns and will bring me more to test my will power. I'll post the Webley and the Lebel tomorrow. The Webley has a tankers holster with it which I find cool.

Great info, thanks. So many stamps to track. I got this with a Webley, a 1892 Lebel and a Steyr 1911. All fun guns to me.

I just acquired the nicest Victory I've seen. It is an Australian issue (lend lease?) revolver. Looks almost unused. The serial number is V470820. Any idea of DOM? Here's a couple photos. Enjoy and thanks if you can help with the date.

Thanks Jack. I may want to get a letter myself.

In WA state we're a "Shall Issue" state. If you have no criminal history you get your permit. $55 good for 5 years. $32 to renew.

The grips are real stag. Photobucket is so slow to upload I didn't try to post them. Thanks so much for the dating help guys! I really appreciate the site. You ask a question and people actually answer it. :)

Hi folks. I just wanted to share this pretty revolver I just acquired. Hard to say when it was made but before 1942. I sorta got sucked in by the nickle finish and stag grips. So here you all go. Enjoy.

Cowboy action shooters shoot them in pocket pistol side matches all the time. Lots of fun. I bring 3 of mine and share with the other people.

I traded for this to shoot, but I don't have the time for the SASS and IPSC shooting I do now, so someone is getting a nice Christmas present. This is a truly amazing revolver. Ron Powers is considered the best revolver competition gunsmith around. He's now retired. It was a hard decision to...

I got this along with a bunch of 'ads you'll never see again' items. I love lemon squeezers so I had to post this here. Can you imagine the furor? Very funny.

Love the 1891's. Mismatched and all, it's still a very cool old gun. Enjoy it.

Thanks everyone. Thanks Bob, what a great story. The individual has a pair of these with sequential numbers. He lost a bunch of guns during a move so is trading some off to refill his safe, so to speak.

Thud!!!! Thanks. I better see what I can trade. :)

A acquaintance brought a really nice gun to me wanting to sell but I can't find anything about it. It's a very customized revolver with the most amazing trigger I've ever seen. DA it feels like about 4#. I know Mr. Powers has a great reputation but I can't find a single example for sale. Anyone...

Exactly like that. Must me a few out there then. :)

A gentleman brought in a model 10 blue box he ahd told me about. I didn't really understand until I saw it. Everything about the box is normal until you look at the lettering on the end of the box. It says "W&S" in the gold lettering. Were these errors common? I've seen a ton of S&W boxes but...

Thanks so much everyone. One thing I love about this forum is when you ask a question, you get a straight answer.

Thanks! Just as I thought. The gun is 98% with the box and manual if that helps.
