Hi all
I did a swap of my mint and boxed Tempest for this steel premier that seems to be a midway between a mk1 steel and an Ally mk2!!
It has the same black paint finish and milled out (to take a badge) section as the mk2 but is actually steel with the 'Do not remove' cylinder end plug!!
A mate on Facebook said he thought he could remember these normally going to the United States years ago!!

Does anyone know for sure whether this was a transitional pistol or would it have been meant to go across the pond??
Cheers, John#
BTW, It seems a bit more powerful than my Hurricane!!
