According to the included factory letter, this pistol was sent as a single item on September 29, 1937, to the London Armory Company of 31 Bury Street, St. James, London, with the added note of "c/o Winchester Repeating Arms Company/New Haven, Connecticut". Sharing a name with a producer of rifles and revolvers for the Confederacy, the London Armory Company as it existed in 1937 was a distributor for Winchester. The letter doesn't state why Winchester sent the pistol to London; it may have been for their British agents to get an idea what the "other guys" were up to, or for sampling/testing Winchester's ammunition. Blade front and adjustable notch rear sights with the two line address and patent dates on the left side of the slide, "crown/V" proofs on the frame and slide, "V", "GP" and "NP" proofs on the chamber, and "NOT ENGLISH MAKE" on the right side of the frame. Fitted with a short milled trigger, a wide checkered hammer, long grip safety, arched checkered mainspring housing with lanyard stud and a two-tone magazine.
