They used up the parts on hand pretty much as they were produced. Typically first in, first out unless there was some issue that delayed them in process. The production areas tended to be structured as batch processes so parts were somewhat grouped.
There was an overlap of toggles at the beginning of 1941 with the two different concealment codes used in the "o" and "p" blocks. About 5,000 were made with "42" toggles, and 15,000 with "byf" toggles.
Of course, once a part was made it could end up in use on a gun anytime after that.

I think I was told somewhere that my 41 BYF 8024o had been
produced around May.
I've been wrong before.  |
