Enfield No2 MkI (Double Action/Single Action)

Loading and firing a 1937 Enfield No2 MkI revolver, caliber .38-200 (aka .38 S&W). This was the revolver adopted to replace the older .455 Webley Mark VI. This is an unmodified version that escaped having its trigger and hammer converted to double action only. See my No2 MkI** video for comparison to a DAO version.

Pardon the wind noise in the second scene.

Hi. The HOLSTER at the beginning would this fit a Webley of 1919

Looks the same size as one in my picture

@Visualfoxy1 It would fit a .38 caliber Webley or Enfield revolver - but not a .455 caliber revolver. There were a couple .38 caliber models available in 1919 but the most common were .455.

@taffwob I always found the official explanation amusing. Even with the 'tanker' holster I've got, the hammer spur is well below the mouth of the holster. If anything were to catch inside a tank it would be the grip! I believe it had a lot more to do with the new pistol instruction in WWII which aimed to avoid aimed single action shots and instead fire double action shots rapidly 'from the hip' at short range. Taking off the hammer spur encouraged that.

@Makingnewnamesisdumb The Enfield was issued to tank crews in an open holster & complaints were made that the hammer spur caught on the inside of the tank whilst exiting in a hurry. To counter this they produced a hammerless model with a double action lock only & many were ratro modified later. a fully functional Enfield with a hammer spur is quite rare.

Don't forget the Webley MK1V .38!

HOW MUCH DOES A HIGH-QUALITY GUN LIKE THIS ONE COST?

Pretty Bad ass if i do say so myself, but i think i'm going to create a force field myself since All I Like is Peace and i dont want people die. I am with god.

will a .38 S&W put a man down with a couple shots Center of Mass? 146 grain bullets must be deadly.

@electrichand1234 I agree, but they wanted to get the soldiers to become better marksmen faster, so that meant getting a gun that had less reciol, my dads got a Mk.6, love it, the action is so smooth, the only problem is that the timing is WAY off

[vitorgaray]

[MySingleplayer]
