Det Spl markings...

Good day to all,

A 1st issue Detective Special from a Police force and so marked on the backstrap. Unsure of the markings that I identify as :

R: ???
H K P : Hong Kong Police
Weapon no. 6349

Anyone familiar with those ??

I think the R could stand for Revolver ( ?? )...

Note: Revolver is reblued to a matte blue finish & was acquired with a 1908 380 from the Shangai Police...

Many thanks again...

Mark

Tacfoley,

Sorry !

I didnt want to offend no one...

I will not get into politics as I just finished reading a book about Canada's history establishing incredible facts like antisemitism against the Jewish population right here in Toronto in the years before Hitler started his final solution...

Thanks for the help on ID of that little 38...and again my apologies if I offended you.
