Talk:Mauser HSc

My rejected corrections/revisions to MAUSER HSc text
Regarding the article on Mauser HSc, I was the original author, with two of the listed references being mine and accepted as exhibits on a recognized gun site.

In addition to the arbitrary revision made in wording and text sequence, here are a few key errors:

- Transitional changes during the wartime production of this pistol have been noted as variations which are identified as falling within specific serial number ranges. The incorrect revision states that these variations fall within specific Werhmacht purchase orders which is simply not the case. The term Wehrmacht is incorrect as the pistols focused upon for the bulk of this unfactual revision were for the Army(Heer)procured pistols. - The commercial proofs on these pistols are not a Crown/N, but an Eagle/N (factory firing proof) which superceded the former proof by 1940 when production of this pistol began. This would be very clear to anyone holding or knowing anything about the wartime HSc pistols.

There are text re-arrangements, subjective word changes and omissions from the original article. In view of the stringent requirements by Wikipedia, I simply cannot understand how this unresearched and erroneous revision could have been accepted. Hochadler (talk) 02:13, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Sourcing
The references added are not inline with the text so it is difficult to establish what source is supposed to confirm what facts. They need to be added with REF tags. -- Whpq (talk) 13:54, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Screw this
The article mentions that the early pistols had a lower grip screw than later models; which variant is in the photograph? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 13:51, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

SN 962047 HSC
I recently purchased this SN and from all appearances this pistol is unfired. From the wear of the blue the gun was carried a lot. Included with the pistol is an ad from " The Shotgun News" April 1993, describing the pistol coming from a special made German Police lot from early 1940. Machining is rough and the gun has a lite bluing. The only proof mark is on the trigger guard by the handle and appears to be a V on top of a small circle, but may be a tulip shape. This same mark is on the bottom of the barrel with an S. The inside of the slide is stamped with a V at the hammer clearance. The importer is stamped on the frame on the right side and reads GAI Miami-FL.. Where would I find more information on this gun? thank you in advance. Great article on the HSC 2600:1700:D40:D720:3D1E:1FD8:9E14:B53 (talk) 03:01, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
