I would think a safety device, or for practice dry firing...BILL

For drill practice-a thin sheet of brass with leather attached-name of it is 'Hammer Protector'-introduced in 1893 (with earlier models).

Mr Grist -where are the Aust service marks 'D Broad Arrow D'?

Hi Bill, a nice looking pistol, this was the standard officers side arm? Is this the same side arm that a pilot would carry ?

regards SK
