welcome

does it have a relined barrel? Or is it a 'germany' stamped that came to the USA?

Or simply rebarreled? As no military in WW1 were made in 7.65mm

As I understand it, the gun was rebarreled (barrel made in Finland) and it is stamped "Germany". I think it's a commercial gun but maybe you can shed some light on that. I bought it on Gunbroker today so haven't received it yet. Here are some photos.
