Glad I haven't bought it.

John,
Not necessarily. It has limited collection value because it has been deactivated. But again, deactivation is the norm in the UK.
But don't write it off. It still is a 1936 model P.08.
And, without the gun in hand, my comments are solely based on a photo. The possibility always exist that the date stamp is unmolested. Only a hands on inspection would confirm or not.
And, frankly, I am still struggling to understand why someone would take time to refresh a date while the rest of the gun appears to be in its original state. Some damage there??
Again, one must have the gun in hand to declare anything as definitive.
Sorry not be be of help here.
John
