Model HSC Pistol / About enlightened serial numbers...
« on: November 15, 2018, 12:39:52 PM »
Hello to you all...
Just a silly question... Did any WWII Mauser HSc leave the factory with white painted serial numbers? I noticed many HSc with yellowish, very old and scratched paint inside serial number, but this could be just an old embellishment made by a collector...
As far as I have observed, just Nagant revolvers refurbished after WWII and some Czech flare pistols have original white paint inside serial numbers...
Thank you so much !

Model HSC Pistol / Hsc sear variation...early and later
« on: August 07, 2018, 05:50:03 AM »
Hi Gentlemen !
Probably I'm discovering the "hot water" (as we use to say in Italy...), but this morning, looking at my HSc's, I noticed that my October 1941 has a sear different from my later ones... I mean that on my older pistol the sear has two "wings" and against these the hammer lays when fully down. In later pistols these "wings" disappear and the hammer is no more in touch with the sear...
Looking on the net I saw that actually this modification occurred at some time...
Do you know why and when this modification was done?
Thank you so much !

Hello Warbird !I have just found an HSc coming from an Austrian family... It is war blued, has plastic grips, has the E-WaA135 Heer acceptance mark and its serial number is 932279. Last but not least has virtually no signs of use and it is really a beauty...Could you, please, let me know the date of manufacturing?Thank you so much !Fausto
