"Made in England" markings and features as well as "ASM" on the left side of the frame by the grip and "A[crown]M" on the right side of the top strap. The latter has been attributed to the Air Ministry.

Excellent with 90% plus of the original dull blue finish, wear concentrated on the grip frame, light oxidation, and cylinder drag lines. The grips are very fine and have distinct checkering and mild age and handling related wear. Mechanically excellent.
