Dreyse 07

1 Attachment(s)

I have this Dreyse 07 in 7.65mm.with some markings on both side of it. I would be gratefull if anybody knows the meaning of these markings. Thank you for any help. Serial number is 228821,
right side there is what it seems a CRS 22 and on the lefy side 26 1D 41. I tried to look it up in History Writ in steel Book becaus it seems that the Police, the dreyse 07 was very common side arm for them, but it seems that it does not fit in that Period.

Alf, The CRS marking is Czech Weimar Police and the 1D marking is Czech military Artillery unit. TH

Alf, Your Dreyse was probably used by the military in WW2 (i don't believe that Czechosalvakia was a unified country durring WW1) but first by the Police before WW2. TH
