HK 1936 On Auction...

Norm,

Regarding pages 279-280 in Still's TRL...the toggle knobs still have the deep bevel/chamfer along the holes in the knobs...

I also gather from looking and reading through the Gibson book, that the characterist HK feautres held pretty steady through the contract 10,000 guns, but QA/QC and production techniques may have begun to vary for the later 3000 or so guns...

Another point : If you look at the gun on page 267 in the Still TRL book, this S-code HK (serial # 3195) does not appear to have the LWaA proof on its right side frame rail...noticed this HK belonged to Don Hallock at the time TRL's was printed. I will e-mail Don, off Forum and will ask him about that...

Regards,

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