Some British WWII revolvers
Enfield No2Mk1 1937
Webley Mark IV “War Finish” dated 1944
Smith & Wesson Model 10 or “Victory” revolver in .38 S&W.
Enfield No2Mk1
An original configuration No2 with a Royal Air Force stamp. An interesting holster with a small collection of former owner’s names still sharpied on them. Apparently it spent time in Malaya.
On some of the photos of my Enfield revolvers I was asked by several people if the revolver pictured was an original No2 with it’s hammer spur intact. Well, in fact, I have 2 Enfield revolvers with the original hammer spur as well the original wooden grips. One however appears to have a later finish one it. As far as I can discern it would have been specifically requested that it keep it’s original configuration through FTR, so it is also a slightly unusual example.
The fully original Enfield is marked for the “RAF” in the first row and the one that went through FTR, but retained it’s spur and grips is across from it. The bottom two are more typical examples of No2MkI** revolvers vs the No2MkI revolvers in the first row.
If you are interested in these revolvers I would suggest you pick up the Ian Skennerton book, “.380 No.2 Revolver” pictured here.

Enfield No2MkI** dated 1945
Very typical example of late war production revolver. The ** denotes this pistol as having the no spur hammer and being double action only, however interestingly, if you can get a hold of the hammer this pistol will work in single action as well.

Here is another “representative” piece. This is a very typical Enfield No2Mk1* pistol, however it has been highly modified after leaving British service. “Snubbie” or “snub-nosed” revolvers are not unusual and this was often done by importers to help sell milsurp arms to the general public. Beyond the shortened barrel it does have the Enfield “DI” stamp and it even has it’s original wooden grips with stock disk, although the grips have been sanded smooth with no trace of their original grooving patterns. Often these shortened pistols were marketed as “tanker” pistols, but this was a fantasy. British tank crews or “tankies” did carry No2 pistols, but so too did all British service men at the time. And they all carried them with as issued barrels.
“Golden State Arms was one of the companies cutting back the barrels of No.2 revolvers for the US market. Ads for the 2inch were in many magazines during the late 50's and early 60"s.” - Gunboards.com
