HK 1936 On Auction...

...when you go to the detailed photos on the seller's web site, the photo of the magazine base does not seem right...IMHO...

There appears to be a "v" suffix (which I do not think HK used) but the number matches the gun. But the acceptance mark looks more like a Mauser proof...not the typical HK proof (which is usually upside-down in relation to the nubmers)...

Text Added on 7-27-03 : Type A-3 magazine did have the LWaA right-side up, under the serial number,...after reviewing my Gibson book, but I still think this one was a Mauser mag...the Eagle looks like an E/63 to me and not a LWaA.



It also appears that there has been some flat-spots on the aluminum bottom...from filing and re-numbering...(?)

The barrel is also import stamped...which is a shame...



What do others think...?
