AUSSIE PROOFED World War II SMITH & WESSON Model K-200 .38-200 Revolver C&R
“MADE IN U.S.A.” Marked LEND/LEASE ACT Revolver
Here we present a C&R Smith & Wesson K-200 .38-200 British Service Revolver, made circa 1940-45 in Springfield, Massachusetts. This revolver is similar to the U.S. Smith & Wesson “Victory” model revolvers and made for the British Commonwealth countries. It features a .38 S&W-200 grain bullet. This example is marked with the Smith & Wesson logo and “MADE IN U.S.A.” on the frame.
From the spring of 1940 until April of 1942, four, five, and six inch barrels were supplied on the .38-200 revolvers. The initial finish was commercial blue, and later became a duller brush blue. And after the 1942 date, smooth wooden stocks replaced the checkered ones with a silver medallion. At that time, the finish changed to a Parkerized look called Midnight Black, and only 5 inch barrels were furnished. The British wanted 5 inch guns due to Enfield and Webley revolvers also had 5 inch barrels, and the Pattern 1937 holsters were made only for barrels of that length.
The overall condition is very fine. Original parkerized finish. The action is excellent. Shiny bright, rifled bore. Both replacement grips are solid. Sharp markings. This example has "D/(broad arrow)/D" Australian proof marks and "FTR/MA55" 1955 Lithgow factory thorough repair marked right of the frame.
