Description

The Enfield No. 2 Mk I revolver is a British military revolver that saw widespread use during World War II. It was produced by several different manufacturers, including Webley & Scott, Albion Motors, and Royal Small Arms Factory (RSAF) Enfield. The revolver was chambered in .38/200, a British designation for the .38 S&W cartridge, and had a six-shot cylinder and a 5-inch barrel.

One interesting variation of the Enfield No. 2 Mk I is the "tanker" or "tanner" model, which featured a factory bobbed hammer. These revolvers were designed for armored vehicle crews and other personnel needing a compact and easily maneuverable handgun. In addition to the bobbed hammer, these revolvers often had other modifications, such as shortened barrels and truncated grips that made them easier to handle in tight spaces.

While not all Enfield No. 2 revolvers with bobbed hammers were produced as "tanker" models, it is known that some were manufactured in this configuration. However, a factory bobbed hammer may indicate that the revolver was intended for a specific use and may interest collectors or enthusiasts.

The Enfield No. 2 revolver was widely used by British and Commonwealth forces during World War II and beyond. It saw action in theaters of war worldwide and was used by various personnel, including officers, non-commissioned officers, and special forces. While it may not be as well-known as other wartime handguns, the Enfield No. 2 Mk I is an interesting and historically significant military revolver that played an essential role in British military operations during the war.
