You could not pay me enough money to fire my HSc "F".  Your gun by it's photos is far more of a collectable grade than a shooter grade.  I am happy it fired well for you, but they only made a few of these.  They may not break easy, but they do show wear and usage when fired.  Just an idea and food for thought.

I understand where your coming from! As I have had collectable guns in the past, go south on me when shooting them.


Years ago I had a post war rework P 38 break it's locking block, when I was shooting it. I had a devil of a time just getting it apart. To replace the locking block. Contacted Warren Buxton re the locking block. Wound up sending it to him. As I recall, he told me it was probably made, (the locking block), in post 1945 Czechoslovakia. And wasn't heat treated correctly.

I have read that a P.38 can come apart, especially when shooting greater than the 115 grain white box ammo.  I have not read of a war era .32 HSc pulling the same trick and hope I never read of any.  I understand the same cannot be said for the post war .380 HSc.   Happy to hear your HSc fired true.
