Does anyone else think the number on the toggle looks like

a 54, instead of a 64?

The magazine on the right also appears to have a possibly

"retouched" 1.

Anyone else see it this way?

Best Regards,

on the right-hand mag bottom, but I definitely agree on the toggle. I thought that when I first saw it, but then thought, "Oh well my eyes ain't what they used to be"

Hi Michael,

I wrote the seller and asked him about the magazine numbers and he assured me that this was a direct vet purchase and the numbers were all correct, the gun was all matching, and nothing had been messed with. I thought the 2 and 1 both were different on the right magazine, but, he suggested that it was the angle of the picture. I studied the picture very closely and I'm sure the 64, 54 is just the angle of the picture. I feel the 1 and 2 on the right are just a deeper strike than the left magazine. The 2 has a curve on one and the 1 has a bar on the bottom, but I feel these are the angle of the die when it was struck and one is struch harder than the other, making the numbers deeper and taking the curve out of the 2 and also, the die was at a different angle, which took the bar off the one.
