Hello Tommy,

Welcome to the forum and thanks for showing those titles, nice to see them.

I've been after a T RE WESSEX title for a while but only seen one recently and it wasn't cheap. Besides that the vendor is not someone I'd do business with.

As to your enquiry, nothing definitive I'm afraid but have a look at this thread:

Tommy,

Welcome to the forum

Hex lugs were used in WW1 period, and also loops. Its just a manufacturer's preference
