A couple of Canadian WW2 Smith and Wessons

[zipperhead]

I thought I would post some pics of a pair of Wartime Smiths with a 5 and 6 inch barrel. Both in great shape with all matching serial numbers including grips. I have fired the 6 inch and it shoots great, I haven't tried the 5 yet.

I really like those. Almost wanting to sell my webley and get me one...or add it i spose. One thing i hate on my webley is the awful sights.

According to MilSurp.com , Canada purchased 45,328 Smith & Wesson 38 revolvers , I understand were well liked by the troops , as compared to the double action only Enfield 38 revolver

Which Enfield revolver is that?

The Enfield No.2 Mk 1* .38 , was a break top revolver, which had a spurless hammer , and was double action only, supposedly the hammer was deleted as a safety factory , as the Armoured Corps were complaining of the the hammer catching on various parts of the tank , which is total BS , as Canadian tank crews carried the Smith & Wesson 38, with the hammer intact ,
