OK, how about this...

I'll just call them Victory Models.

All of them.

And it wouldn't be incorrect to call a circa 1920 Military and Police a pre Model 10 any more than it would be to call a 1980 Model 10 a Military and Police.

The Military and Police is the commonality throughout the entire history of the gun, starting with the Model of 1899.

Everything else is just pish posh convenience window dressing.

Nice Victory Model, by the way.
