To me they look like the 1927 & 28 stampings but I want a second opinion. I also have the 3/4 extension but haven't found the stampings since it's beaten up. I got these along with the electrical tester in my last thread post. IMG_20230608_135205.jpgIMG_20230608_135119.jpgIMG_20230608_135046.jpgScreenshot_20230608-140223.pngIMG_20230603_195744.jpg

Yes 20's. You did notice one of those is a Milwaukee Tool & Forge right? Also, are those 3 date codes shown from those same 3 sockets? ie. does the MTF have a date code? Another thing, check the drive size on all of them carefully with a ruler.

Thanks! I should have clarified in the first post pic 2 & 3 are the same socket with the flash on & off, and the last photo I took a few days ago when I first brought them home that's why the MTF is in the photo.

You mentioned a "3/4" extension. Those Snap On sockets are 7/8" drive though, is that right?

You should check the shaft on the extension it may be mtf. The long one here was real beat up but the engravings were generally pretty deep I figured I'd pull out the same sockets you have for pics but mine Definitely not as nice as yours
