@Brad. Planned on helping buddy with coyotes using 1878 vetterli another buddy (shooting) helped convert to 44-40. Decent accuracy, no safety and I never converted bolt and carrier to use mag but quieter than a bb gun. Coyotes thinned out before I had time to help.

So, not a HK, but a close cousin of the first HK (HK4). The folks who designed the Mauser HSc migrated over to the new H&K after the war and you can see the similarities between this and the HK4. The difference is that the HSc is heavier due to its steel frame. This one is in 7.65 Browning (.32ACP), and is nickel plated from the factory with an 8 shot magazine. I added the Mauser grips. They wanted the HK4 to be lighter, so it got an aluminum frame and all of the resultant issues of frame cracking when it was offered in 9mm Kurtz. Both pistols are a little large for the pocket pistol category, but a nice OWB holster makes for a comfortable carry piece.

I have always had a weakness for SS!
