It should be nolted that the leather holster has been removed from the stock. (This occured on many of the Finnish shoulder stocks.) The following images show how the holster was used.

Finnish Shoulder Holster made from the holsters removed from the board stocks. Shoulder straps were added to the holster.
(Please note that some of the holsters were converted to belt holsters.)

Comparison of "SA" markings.
I have seen the "SA" markings either on the right side of the slide, the left side of the slide and on the left trigger guard.
For the purpose of comparing the "SA" markings used on the Finnish Hi-Powers, I have taken the liberty of making a copy of the Finnish Hi-Power image posted by Jan Still on 9/18/03.
The "SA" marking on serial no. 13647 is on the right side of the slide. Note the (larger) size of the "SA" marking. Note also the "T" to the right of the "SA" marking.

The "SA" marking on serial no. 12107 (Jan's Hi-Power) is on the left side of the trigger guard. Note the size of the "SA" marking and the fact that there are no other markings.
(For reference, the "SA" marking that I have seen on the left side of the slide are the same size as the one on the trigger guard and without any other marking.)

It is clear that two different dies were used for affixing the "SA" markings to the Finnish Hi-Powers.
I do not know the meaning of the "T" on serial no. 13647 and am hoping that some one can give the meaning of this marking.
It has Belgian commercial proofs.
