HK Holster Question...

[Pete Ebbink]

Hey John D.,

No need to apologize for your posting...I was just trying to carry the debate a bit further.

Can you provide some insights as to why you thought the style of my LWaA2 stamp was not correct for the # 5665 gun timeframe of 1936-1937. Does another style of LWaA occurs on as-issued holsters from 1936-1937...if yes, do you have a jpeg you might post to make me a bit smarter ?

One more thing to ruminate about...

The time of the stamping of "5665" may not be the same time the stamping of "LWaA2" occured...

Maybe the HK inspector inspected/accepted a batch of spare, replacement holsters that went into armoury stores at one time and later when issued as a replacement to a lost/damaged holster for gun # 5665, the "5665" stamping was applied...?

Will get more photos up on the Forum this weekend...

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
