Well now that proofs it Indy, you realy do need glases
Oleg has two 5 stemmed SH.u.Co´s
The measurement 61,7, is that the length of the rifle or between eagles head and lower part of the wreath?Regards

Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.

Oleg, measurements and weight are good
IMHO both your IAB´s are originals. I firmly beleave that when the first one you posted was made the mold for some reason moved and thus made the elongated holes in the bayonetgrip and squached the mm in a stage when the zink had started to harden.
The second IAB, the mold was not put together in the right way (slighty moved upwards from it´s original position), thus the mm came under the hinge when it was attached to it.
One final question, are any part of the reverse setup (hinge, needle, catch) magnetic? (Just to feed my curiousity regarding this maker)Regards

Originally posted by Indythere is a hole above MM. Normally, they don't have this hole. The end of pin just touchs the lower edge of hinge.
That´s nothing to worry about, many badges with this type of hinge and needle construction does have this feature. In fact both of my Steel SH.u.Co´s have this exact look at the end of the pin at the hinge.
I agree though that this is not commonly seen on the zinkers by this maker.
I´ll get back to this when Oleg answered my question regarding the material used in his reverse hardware if my hunch is right.Regards
