The top barrel flat is stamped "V&R BLAKEMORE LONDON", with "W. TRANTER/PATENT" on the right side of the frame. The right frame side also has a stuck unit marking above a clear "R.M.G./4" unit marking. British proofs are present on the cylinder flutes and barrel and the bottom barrel flat has an unidentified marking. Fitted with a one piece checkered grip.

Good as period refurbished. Overall the revolver has a smooth brown-gray patina with scattered traces of faded period applied blue finish remaining in the protected areas. There are a couple patches of minor pitting. The grip is very good with a few minor blemishes. Overall the checkering is crisp. Mechanically fine.
