Hi Mike, The questionable tool leads me to take a closer look at the gun itself. As I said earlier, K dates are not my bag, but I do know that all of them should have sharp edged front sight bands, that those with low serials like #1080 should have the Mauser hump, and that most of them should have receiver indents. Attached below is a link to a lengthy study of K dates on the other forum. Your pictures aren't clear enough for me to tell if the front sight band is sharp edged, or if the receiver has indents, but the frame certainly doesn't have the Mauser hump. Regards, Norm
