I see now where the wording of my first post is confusing. I did not mean the entire 760 model run was less desirable. As you point out, "Only the very earliest ones had the comb dropped for iron sight use." What years of manufacture are considered the very earliest?

The hanger I am referring to is aka guide and while it is not supposed to touch the barrel, sometimes they do?
Was this hanger or guide discontinued later in 760 production run? If so, what year?

No argument between the 760 and 7600, just asking questions. Sorry I was not clear.
