It is a great swinging, light to carry gun with especially wonderful triggers am not familiar with the model or about the approximately year of manufacture. Can someone please help. I cant get a good shot of the water table or crown over U proof.

So issued a serial number circa 1907 & completed in say 1920. Kind Regards/Cheers, Raimey rse
