		Enfield Revolver is the name applied to two totally separate models of self-extracting British handgun designed and manufactured at the government-owned Royal Small Arms Factory in Enfield; initially the.476 calibre Enfield Mk I/Mk II revolvers (from 1880â“1889), and later the.38/200 calibre Enfield No. 2 Mk I (from 1923-1957).
		It should be noted that the term "Enfield Revolver" is not applied to Webley Mk VI revolvers built by RSAF Enfield between 1923 and 1926.
		Unlike most other self-extracting revolvers (such as the Webley service revolvers or the Smith & Wesson No. 3 Revolver), the Enfield Mk I/Mk II was somewhat complicated to unload, having an Owen Jones selective extraction/ejection system which was supposed to allow the firer to eject spent cartridges, whilst retaining live rounds in the cylinder.

		It was known officially as the ".380 Revolver Mk I" and had a 200gr.
		The TKO figure of 10.02 for the 135gr.40 suggest that it is likely to be slightly more effective than 125gr 357's TKO of 9.24 -although this does not allow for bullet design or configuration.
		One interesting point is that the 135gr.40 has a relatively low sectional density for a pistol round (0.12), and the effect of this can be seen at longer ranges, where it has only 85% of its original velocity at 50yards, compared to 90-97% for bullets of more usual sectional density.
