My 1st P.08, a 1914 Erfurt

George Anderson · 08-11-2005, 02:33 PM

Dwight, I remember the two date Erfurts. I believe that the pistol above was probably finished in 1915 or later, I think that its' pedigree is demonstrated in the provenance of the individual pistol. There is no sense in boosting a pistol that will sell at the low range. At the sale price of $1200 no one could have made any real money on the sale unless they had simply "turned" the pistol.

Everything about the subject pistol tells me that it is a solid example of a WWI period P08.
