Thank you for the history and the details of this magnificent handgun.

[@TheArmourersBench]

Thanks for the kind comment and for watching Denis!

2.2lbs, And is 35oz lighter than the previous model? Good lord!
Still, would make a great club when it’s empty

[@TheArmourersBench]

Yeah, would not want to be pistol whipped with on of those haha.

[@gebirg1]

If that's the case then that would make the Mk3 4.4lbs. Surely some mistake?

[@bibifricotin4051]

Thanks for video and explications. Really a fantastic revolver.

[@TheArmourersBench]

Thanks for watching!

I very much prefer the birdhead grip of the Mark IV to the humped grip of the Mark VI. I sleep with a Mark IV every night.

[@TheArmourersBench]

But more elegant looking isn't it. Though they do rock back in the hand more without thst hump.

[@barefoofDr]

@@TheArmourersBench To me that rocking back is an advantage when fireing singal action.

Isn't this a mk v the mk iv is known as the Boer war model the mk iv has a longer barrel and a bigger grip

[@TheArmourersBench]

No definitely a MkIV, at the 0.22 mark in the video you can see it's marked Mark IV. Thanks for watching!
