Any idea what the revolver is??? I'm guessing a Colt of some kind, based on the grip shape...But 38 or 45??? I have the 1944 edition of the
Aircrewman's Gunnery Manual issued to Navy aircrews, and it only lists the M1911A1...
It is a given that the Marines would be issued the worst equipment (and not enough of it) but where did these revolvers come from??? Leftovers from WW I (like the Springfield 03a3's the Marines were issued at the start of WW II)???
The closest match I can find in POTW is the
Colt .45 US M1917 in .45ACP loaded by two half-moon clips...
