Thanks 44 that's the one.
I will check the numbers when I get it out of the safe, I remember there is enough of the numbers showing on the cylinder to tell they match the frame.
It's odd the cylinder does not lock up tight until the trigger is pulled unlike more modern revolvers that lock on cocking.
It does lock up tight as a nut
at that stage though.

Cheers
