This video explores the history and significance of the Adams MkIII revolver as the first handgun issued to the North West Mounted Police (NWMP), the precursor to the modern RCMP. It details the initial problematic shipment of worn-out Adams Mk I revolvers and the subsequent arrival of the superior MkIII models. The description highlights how these .450 Adams revolvers, with their double-action trigger and solid frame, were purpose-made and served well, even noting their unique police markings applied by a local gunsmith.
