Dear Hugh,

It looks like the pistol was restored with a fair amount of polishing. Was the "S/42" restamped in front of the toggle? I have a C96 that was polished and the lettering can be read but it is somewhat faint. Seeing that very clear "S/42" made me wonder if my C96 could be carefully restamped with the same size and type stamps as the originals. And whether Ted does that sort of thing

Regards,
