Did your hand get hurt on the slide coming back?

Jim

Only if I hold it higher, I also have a pair of Mechanix shooting gloves.

I took it out to the range tonight, it chambers a round with the safety on, it decocks with a round in the chamber (safety on pull trigger) without firing :)  I shot two boxes of 50 Aguilla .32 and only had one FTF, I'm guessing it was the round or a fluke, since I've never had one before, but I haven't had much experience with this brand, just S&B (Sellier & Bellot). I'm pretty happy, my favorite vintage pistol now.

I found a firing pin for the .32 Mauser HSc, had it installed and found that the old firing pin was loose, the main block and the pin itself was moving back and forth. The new pin didn't have the two circular pins on the bottom of the firing pin block (center piece of the firing pin) and was blued. Now when the safety is on, it doesn't protrude from the breech. I will test fire it tomorrow morning and let you guys know how it functions.

I think it only goes one way because of the detent and groove in the firing pin.

I took it to a gunsmith, when the pistol is in safe, the firing pin sticks out about a millimeter and hangs up on the round when chambering. Maybe the firing pin isn't original?

No it's not normal.  The problem has to go back to the extended cams on the Sear.  If you could take the Slide off and post a good picture of the Sear I might be able to help.

I have a question, Is it normal to have a problem chambering a round with the safety on? Both racking the slide and having the magazine close the slide on insertion fails to go into battery with a round, with the safety off, it functions fine. maybe the magazine needs cleaning? Or is that as intended?

I took her to the range today with some 7,65 Browning 73 grain ammo. Shot flawlessly. However, I noticed that it doesn't go into full battery with a round with the safety on when inserting a magazine. When I disengage the safety and insert a magazine and the slide closes, it works just fine. As well as firing an entire magazine, it works great. It also gives me decent hammer bite, I don't know if it's because I have large hands or I'm not holding it tight enough to control recoil. I will not be touching the firing pin and safety switch, it works just fine. I should probably get some after market grips and put the originals away for safe keeping. Here's more pictures:

Thanks Warbird, Im curious about how to remove the safety lever to remove the firing pin for cleaning. I looks like it would be similar in how the Walther PPK would be, by turning the lever half way. Any pointers would be appreciated, since I know how fragile the fireing pins are.

All serial numbers match, there is nothing on the bottom of the magazine, which I thought was strange. I thought at least it should have the Mauser logo. I got the polymer gun tools from amazon, I just did a search and read the reviews. They work pretty well for me. Thanks :)

Model HSC Pistol / 1942 Mauser HSc

I picked this up a few days ago, I believe it's a 1942 HSc with a serial number of 803xxx. It has the eagle over N on the slide, barrel and on the bottom right trigger guard, but no waffenampt on the left trigger guard.
Hi, I'm new here, but I want to share this Mauser HSc I picked up with the serial number 803280 a few days ago, I believe it was made in 1942. It's a commercial model, since it doesn't have a waffenampt on the left lower trigger guard. It does have the eagle over n on the right trigger guard, front slide and the barrel. I'm just curious how rare it is.
