No waffenamt!

No Waffenampt?

Correct, this one is "clean"
Commercial, and the officer had to buy it himself like many other officer.

Got a PP altso, from a German captain in Kristiansand. He was a officeworker and had to buy his own pistol.

The grip screws were subsequently moved up about ¾" and by serial number 701348, the Heer (Army) began procurement followed by the various Polizei (Police) organizations, including the Schutzstaffel or SS. The Luftwaffe (Airforce) purchased HSc pistols through the Heereswaffenamt and not their own departments. Military personnel not issued a sidearm often purchased pistols (including the HSc) in the commercial marketplace and carried them into the field.

The latest Dillon 'Blue Press' catalog has an article on the HSc for the centerfold.
It sounds like a fascinating weapon.

Geberg, does your HSC have eagle N or crown N proof marks?

 

[Gebirg]

Eagle/N - yes!

Geberg, does your HSC have eagle N or crown N proof marks?

I got one HSc for Kriegsmarine made in 1944, and this commercial made in 1940-41 - both of them has the Eagle/N for wartime production.
