John,
I am no expert but having both, the only thing I see is that the newer ones look newer if taken care of (because they are newer) and the wood is fancier for lower grade guns like VH or VHE. My two 1935 guns are tight as a bank vault. I wish my repros closed up that way. I think the early ones like mine were made in the factory, in the same way and by the same people as before Remington bought them.
