Overstamped Serial Number

(1/1)

jcorl:
There is a 1940-1941 era commercial HSc on gunbroker for sale.  The mag appears to be incorrect, but that is another matter.  The barrel's serial number appears to have been over stamped to force a match.  (not a very good job of it, in fact)  I would take the position that this action produces a shooter grade example and not a collectable.  Would I be wrong in that assumption?

Warbird:
You're absolutely correct on that, Jim.  As a matter of fact, it looks like it was overstruck 2 or 3 times and whoever did it still didn't get it right!

jcorl:
Thank you Alan for the confirmation.  Not too many commercials were made in those years.  It is a shame that this one is not in collector grade.

Regards,
Jim
