Hey Mark..!!!!
OUSTANDING!!! I notice on yours, that you have the earliest version of the die type for "GESICHERT"... Very sweet!
As well is do the inside of the grips have the last two digets stamped, or are they un-numbered?
If you are interested, I'll take my Early S apart tonite and take a look mainspring guide - but, as I recall - it also is roughly machined? My guess is that they cared more about function then "stunning looks" back then.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
As for not winning any beauty contests - I beg to differ.. It's outstanding!!!
Thanks for posting this excellent review!!!
