![]() ![]() The first mag I fired, it jammed just about every other round. This assumption seemed to be confirmed the first time I took it to the range. By the looks of it, I’d bet it had never been fired before. I bought it at a pawn shop a few years ago. More information on the marking variants of the HSc (and some nice detailed photos) can be found at Pistols of the German Wehrmacht. As with most contemporary pistols, they used a heel-mounted magazine release and a safety on the slide. 32ACP (postwar variants were also made in 9x17mm). Mechanically, the HSc is a simple blowback design, chambered for. A total of 252,000 HSc pistols were made during World War II, with 137,000 purchased by the German Army, 27,000 by the Navy, 28,000 by various police units, and 59,000 sold commercially (including many sales to soldiers who were not issued pistols). When the HSc ( Hahn Selbstspanner modell C double-action model C) did go into production, the guns were serial numbered starting with #700,000, to pick up where Mauser 1914/34 pistol production ended.

The experts also explain that we live in what used to be the bears home so we should be able to share the space with the bears. The local experts told us to put our garbage in our freezers so it wont attract the bears. Several times early in the am on my way to work I have had to clean up after the bears spread our garbage all over the road on garbage pick up morning. The local bear experts called it bear murder. A local bow hunter (probably the dad of one of the children) eliminated the menace. Several years ago bears were menacing children at a school bus stop. The local bear experts stated that the bear was as scared as the lady. Several years ago a woman jogger was pulled down by a black bear. ![]()
