It is my understanding that if purchased in the UK it would have the UK firing proof on it...IOW, somewhere on the barrel it would have stampings like the attached pic...If it was purchased legally...
(I recall reading an article once that stated that de-mobbing British troops were told the strict penalties of smuggling weapons into England on the ferry ride across the Channel...The author went on to say you could almost walk across the Channel on the pistols & other weapons dumped overboard by alarmed soldiers)...
