Curious HK Toggle...

The handle looks a little too squat and short and the handle does not appear to have the diagonal lines running through it.

Once again, good observation, Pete. The toggle top also looks buffed. The "DWM", etc. was probably removed. Would be interesting to test the thickness of the toggle with a micrometer. Love your new Avatar, Pete. You come up with some great ones!

Hi Doc,

The e-Bay seller has several HK parts, but I do not see any HK proofs on those other parts.

I find my avatars on e-Bay looking at old Swiss postage stamps and old postcards. The Library of Congress has some good photo galleries as well.

Here's an avatar for you from the Norman Rockwell days :

Pete, I agree with the DR. re: your avatar's. Anyway for you to show all that you have used? I can remember 2 earlier ones. Tim

Hi Tim,

Not sure if I have all my old avatar photos or not, but here is what I still have on file. Hope what you are looking for is in this batch :

And then there is this one I picked up surfing the web somewhere.

Don't know if I would every use this one as my avatar

Pete, some day maybe you can show me how to "avatar!"

Doc,

Before then...you could also send your favorite jpeg file to John S. and ask him to insert it into your profile.
