Re: Pawn Shop Find: question
The hold-open device has nothing to do with the safe firing or function of the pistol. Erfurt did not add the hold-open until mid 1913 and DWM did not use it until late 1912 or early 1913. The hold-open locks the breech assembly back after the last shot is fired, and while this is nice it is not essential.
