      Very interesting cross. It uses what I consider AWS's 2nd core, but I don't think this cross is by AWS. Also, this core, when used in AWS EKs, is always non-magnetic in my experience. I bet this one is magnetic. In any case it's a very nice cross.
      Best regards,

      Looking for ROUND BUTTON 1939 EK1 Spange cases (LDO or PKZ)

            As Trevor stated, very interesting, it looks to use the "beaver tail" pin and catch found only, so far, on the early blue cored types.

            Could be the photo but the inner beading seems to have lifted somewhat. Nice cross

                          Thanks for the extra photos Mike. These, I believe, are normally always vaulted anyway and it doesn't seem to be overly vaulted. Maybe a factory oversight?

                          Yep, the pin certainly exhibits the beavertail, first time I've seen it on another type of cross. Possibly more parts sharing between producers??
