This thing has a locksocket plug, a handle like a 71n, a needle lever ,a 1936 date code and is a 71a. ?? Transitional, industrial? Just wondering if anyone has seen one or maybe knows something about it.

I have not seen one with the pin before, sometimes on 71n rats. The flair end is common on older 71A rats

Maybe the plug has been changed

it could have been, but they were making industrial tools at that time, so it could be just made that way.
