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 !

Thank you Sirs,
I knew something about the patent issue  with Walther, but I didn't realize how the modification has been done...
Thanks again for your prompt and competent reply !

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 !

Model HSC Pistol / What is the HSc "frame stop"? I'm in troubles...
« on: August 04, 2018, 04:35:58 AM »
Hello gentlemen !
I was looking at this very interesting (and old...) topic about the differences between an early HSc with the machining inside the trigger guard and a later one with solid trigger guard...
Alan noticed a different lenght between their "frame stop"... I compared my October 1941 Hsc (with the "metal chuck") and my November 1944 with solid guard and they look identical (apart the machining inside the guard).
Can you help, considering that my English doesn't help me?
Thank you so much !

Thanks again for your kindness...

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

Hi to you all !
I recently posted in the Central Powers and Axis Pistols Forum a Mauser HSc, serial number 739293, which was supposedly made in 1941.
Could you narrow the date of manufacture?
Thank you so much
