The Story

Original Item: Only one available. The No.2 Mk.5 signal pistol closely follows the configuration of the No.1 Mk.5, except that instead of the long barrel with a belled muzzle, it has a short barrel with a stud for latching to a through-armor fitting in many British WWII AFVs (armored fighting vehicles).

This example is in fair condition, with very nice plastic/bakelite grips, intact lanyard ring, and most of the original finish intact. The only issue is that the back piece of the hammer has broken off. The hammer still functions as intended, but the user now has to pull it back from the top which is a bit more difficult. There are proof marks on various parts of the pistol, with the serial number 111196. Pistol appears to be fully functional, with no mechanical issues. Does show age and pitting.

This example comes ready for further research and display!
