Hi Bob
I didn't know there was an early and a late. What are the differences between the two?
Thanks

Ooops... sorry Greg. It was just General Shaver 'G' that had an early and late follower. Early had a flat back plate, while the later version had a stamped vertical ridge on the follower back plate. I think all other WWII production was flat.
