[QUOTE="Michael Sith, post: 410065, member: 4511"] Letters were used on Sabers as QC, plastic injected into steel moulds. The original DT moulds had the QC letters, and as they had a lot of issues with malformation and waste costs, the general consensus is that's why they went to the single telescoping sabers. When they switched they retooled the original moulds to facilitate the change to single telescoping sabers, so the letters stayed, but as the worn out moulds were replaced later the letters were not in the new moulds hence the disappearance of the lettering. You can find letters on both sides of the hilt either side There's loads of info on sabers on here re letters etc. Good list here http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t6953-list-of-lettered-hilt-lightsabers-concentrated-on-darth-vader Good info here http://www.imperialgunnery.com/lightsaberssection.htm [/QUOTE]
