Is that a Crown/RC on the rear toggle link?

Yes. In the forward link too. Erfurts were noted for lots of revision commission marks.;)

Note, that since it is an early production gun, the Erfurt crown is still intact.

Thanks for clarifying the C/RC stamps. I know that Erfurt C/RC marks are common, I'm a bit surprised to see them on a pre-war Luger when there wasn't the pressure of war time production. My earliest Erfurts are a pair of 1914 Artillery models.
