Canadian stamped W&S No1Mk3

[Peter]

My latest addition:
A nice, Canadian stamped 1918 No1Mk3.

I didn't see one on the forum yet, so maybe it's nice to share.
I wonder when the Canadian stamp was placed.

That is a nice one - thanks for sharing!

Hopefully one of our members can provide some insights as to the No1MkIII in Canadian service. In the meantime - Happy New Year!

Most likely it was applied when it was received into stores by Canada, if there was time. Failing that thee mark may have been applied after the war.

There is no way of knowing unfortunately.

Come on chaps. I am new to this forum but this pistol is a Mk111*. The mk111 does not have the barrel flare as all you collectors must know.

Actually, the Mark III does not have the break open safety, The Mark III* has the safety. I have both mark III and III* with and without the Barrel flare.

Ron, Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the welcome. I also have a Canadian stamped pistol so will photograph it tomorrow.
I hope to add my pistols to this forum for info .Been collecting for 35 years pistols and ammo.
