Astra Cadix

A snub nose revolver is found in Percy Malleson's (James Merry) lanchbox in "Rocket" (S01E03). The shape of the frame and trigger guard resemble Astra revolvers; Astra Cadix seems to be a decent guess (and it fits for 1960s).

Trivia

A fictional surface-to-air missile, named Standfast Mk 2, is seen in several scenes on munitions factory in "Rocket" (S01E03). The general outlook of the missile is based on such real life British SAMs as Bristol Bloodhound and English Electric Thunderbird. The storyline of purchasing Standfast missiles by a fictional Middle East state is also a reference to Thunderbird that was purchased by Saudi Arabia in 1967.
