Hello John D.,

Thanks so much for the great update.

I did noticed the frame Doug G. posted has that light vertical line to the left of the HK stamping.

Any thoughts why some of the "F" restrikes can be seen floating so high above the main stamping ? Was this just carelessness ? Is there a range of the "float" of the "F" ? Maybe since this was a hand-strike ?

Also, did both "F"'s get restruck...or do you see the middle-F more so than the end-F...?

Any thought to the "donor" gun used...if many back framed inscribed HK are "creations". Would the donor gun have had its "i" suffix, originally, or do you see that added, as well...?

Regards,

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