All Early Wartime HSc's had a Lanyard Loophole.  The last documented pistol with a Loophole was 792225 in September 1942 during the Transitional period.  It was in this period (August to November 1942) that Mauser made some significant changes to the HSc.  In addition to eliminating the Lanyard Loophole, they converted to the Military Blue finish from the High Polish Blue, the Sight Ramp was changed from an etched matte to just a plain matte finish, and the Frame Web in front of the Trigger that had been machined almost hollow was left solid.
