**2018 DEACTIVATION CERTIFICATED**Enfield No.2 Mk I .38 Top Break Revolver. D 5988. - D 5988
After the First World War, it was decided by the British Government that a smaller and lighter .38 calibre (9.2 mm) sidearm firing a long, heavy 200 grain (13 g) soft lead bullet would be preferable to the large Webley service revolvers using the .455 (11.6 mm) round. While the .455 had proven to be an effective weapon for stopping enemy soldiers, the recoil of the .455 cartridge complicated marksmanship training. The authorities began a search for a double-action revolver with less weight and recoil that could be quickly mastered by a minimally trained soldier, with a good probability of hitting an enemy with the first shot at extremely close ranges. By using a long, heavy, round-nosed lead bullet in a .38 calibre cartridge, it was found that the bullet, being minimally stabilised for its weight and calibre, tended to 'keyhole' or tumble longitudinally when striking an object, theoretically increasing wounding and stopping ability of human targets at short ranges. Consequently, the British firm of Webley & Scott tendered their Webley Mk IV revolver in .38/200 calibre. Rather than adopting it, the British authorities took the design to the Government-run Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield, and the Enfield factory came up with a revolver that was very similar to the Webley Mk IV .38, but internally slightly different. The Enfield-designed pistol was quickly accepted under the designation "Revolver, No 2 Mk I" (single/double action, with a hammer spur), and was adopted in 1931, followed in 1938 by the Mk I* (lightened trigger pull, spur less hammer, double-action only), and finally the Mk I** (simplified for wartime production) in 1942. This example retains the majority of its colour. The grip is showing minor signs of service wear and is intact. The pistols serial number is ‘D1418’ and the pistol cocks and dry fires correctly in single action. A good example for the collector or re-enactor. The price for this pistol includes deactivation certificate & UK delivery. D 5988.

The Colt M1873 Single Action Army/ Peacemaker was a single action revolver designed for the U.S. Government by Colt. The revolvers were adopted as the U.S. Army standard military service revolver until 1892 and were favoured by Early Law Enforcement Officers. The Colt Buntline Special was a long-barrelled variant of the Colt Single Action Army revolver, which Stuart N. Lake described in his best-selling but largely fictionalized 1931 biography, Wyatt Earp: Frontier Marshal. According to Lake, the dime novelist Ned Buntline commissioned the production of five Buntline Specials. Lake described them as extra-long Colt Single Action Army revolvers. The iconic 'Buntline' design lives on today in the form of Firearms quality weapons and blank firers by Italian manufacturer's such as Armando Piscetta and his Loano company Armi Jager. Jager started building their Peacemaker variants in 1962. This full size Buntline .357 calibre revolver is side gate loading and has a captive ejector rod.

*.22 Blank Fire* Uberti-Colt 1873 Peacemaker Blank Fire .22. Single Action Six Shot Revolver with Off-Set Cylinder. D 5985. - D 5985
Introduced in 1873, the Colt SAA was the standard sidearm of the United States Army for almost 20 years, until it was replaced by a .38 calibre, double-action revolver in 1892, also supplied by Colt. The Army issue was a 7½” barrelled, single action revolver in .45 Colt calibre, with two other ‘standard’ barrel lengths, 5½” (1875) and 4¾” (1879), offered to the public shortly afterwards. Pretty soon, you could have any barrel length you wanted on special order and the variety of calibres grew until the list included well over 30 different cartridges, several offered only in single digit quantities. The Peacemaker is still produced by Colt today in exactly the same configuration as it was almost 150 years ago. This example has an off-set cylinder, with the metalwork retaining its colour and its pearl grips in excellent condition. It has a 7 ½” barrel with blade foresight grooved cylinder frame rear sight. The pistol measures 13 ½” overall. The pistols serial number is 3080 and the pistol’s blued cylinder is ringed and the pistol cocks and dry fires correctly in single action. A good example for the collector or re-enactor. The price includes UK delivery. D 5985.
