I have it on a word document format and can't download to my photo server.
I says that the pistol: "This sale is final and the US Govt retains no obligation or responsibility for malfunction, repair, replacement or exchange"

That wording is identical to that shown on a shipping document dated 1957 in Brophy's '03 book. And on the next page is a 1961 dated invoice with the same wording. For us non-lawyers, the different phrasing is equivalent and in both cases was probably enough to satisfy that era's government lawyers.

Would be interesting to find the 'unserviceable' definition in the document Kuhnhausen excerpted, but even that wouldn't mean that the standard was consistently applied.

In the TH example Kuhnhausen used, even his experienced eye didn't spot the misaligned hole until he looked down from the top and saw the sear wasn't laying where he knew it should. Would everyone doing these inspections have noticed that? Inspecting for four or five attributes really requires focus - doing a general checkout of a complex system is very difficult without a detailed checklist. Pretty sure that didn't happen here. Might even have heard the phrase 'good enough for government work' uttered a time or two.
