Yet another sideplate question! (re: 1937 s42)

Hi Johnny,

Thanks for your response. I am hoping Bill knows definitively. Or else maybe some forum members can pull out their true vet-bring-back 1937s and check inside the side plates.

That stupid 3 in the corner really has me stumped. I can't explain it. I haven't heard it is Mauser practice so why would an original sideplate have it? And I don't want to try to justify something out of normal practice. Hmmmm....
