Title: Question to the HSc faithful
Post by: jcorl on November 07, 2015, 10:57:32 AM

Good Gentlemen,

Anyone ever seen or heard of a unit marked HSc?   I am interested in knowing, if anyone has one .

Jim, other than the Medical Group presentation pieces and various SA Marinesturm marked pistols, the only other unit marked HSc that we have come across is KM 743970 engraved "K.S.V." that Peter translates as "Küstenschutzverband" or Coastal Protection Group.  Maybe someone else has further information but that's all for now.  Hope it helps.

My commercial 743024 has an empty presentation grip indentation, then after factory pantographed, which gives the appearance of being Heer heritage.  I was hoping someone might view the post and comment with another example. Thank you for showing Peter's beautiful example. I don't believed mine has been faked, but I cannot prove 100% what I believed it to be.  It is interesting our serial numbers are not that far apart.  It does lead to interesting possibilities. Jim
