  There were several models of this revolver (Royal Irish Constabulary) and the last was discontinued in 1939. Looks like they are all well inside the definition of antique (50 years?). As to whether or not your individual pieces are pre-1898, I rather doubt it, as the numbers are relatively high; but I do not have a serial number list for these by year of manufacture. Interesting that the lowest and highest are only separated by about 19,000.
