Another "what's it worth" question...

Yes - individual department inspectors had a wide range of personal inspection stamps. Sometimes numbers / letters and sometimes unusual symbols.

This wasn't standardized until much later at Mauser where the "WR" stamp was instituted.

Ah... so if the breech block is unnumbered, it can still have some kind of other numbers then? Or was this part supposed to be numbered to the gun? I haven't found any numbers (yet...) on the front toggle link, so I suppose that the breech block may not be numbered to the gun either.

I might just take the whole gun apart and check the parts for numbers, if nothing else for educational purposes.
