The British Commonwealth used a variety of revolvers and automatic pistols made by Webley, Enfield, Colt, S&W, Argentine Ballester Molina and others. Many were supplied from America under the "Lend Lease" program because the British Commonwealth had largely disarmed itself before WWII, and the Brits did it again after WWII ended. Not too smart.

Most common, the Enfield revolver. Same as their UK counter parts. Some Used US made S&W Victory models, The Webley V! in .455, Or Inglis made Hi powers in 9mm.

Enfield Revolver was the official one to begin with. But there weren't enough, so the Webley Revolver was also used.
The two weapons are pretty much identical, though.
