George roams these pages.
Anyone recall when I mentioned about my wife buying a Type IIA QHMC magcatch for me as a anniversary gift?
She seen I had it on my 'Wish list' after picking up a QHMC from fellow member Magnum Mike.
I was out of town working and had one of George's Repros in my watch box. Great way to compare his markings to a real one...... Right?
She gave it to me all nicely wrapped. I cringed when I seen who it came from....... I couldn't tell her the truth with that smile on her face. I just acted thrilled. She even commented that they'd sent a free pen and had a parts list with it, with lots of parts.
Was lucky enough to find a real one later. The difference in just the weight was the first tell tale of it being repro. Next was the stamped letters. Then one wipe with #9 and all that old green patina and torched grease was gone..... Imagine that.

What really burned me was Ole George leaving this Feedback.....

A+ Thank you for your continued bussiness.
