John,

I don't believe they were ever installed. A fellow collector Friedrich M?¼ller from Germany has made the following observations about the "N" series guns.

- the frame is without lanyard loop and stock lug
- milling on the top of the sideplate and holes in the frame for use of a Schiwy safety !!
- lock bolt without the milling on the rear side
- the unlock curves are reset 2 mm to behind, therefore the thumb safety lever way is somewhat shorter as usual
- rear toggle only with â??outsideâ? checkering
- the trigger is manufactured from investment casting with only minor rework
- the milling for the extractor is prolonged to behind
- the recoil spring shows 24 than the usual 18 windings
- the trigger is excentric given after the pistols right side
- inside the frame the milling is according to a Krieghoff
- the coupling link pin is a riveted bold
- there are serial numbers on frame and slide only
- barrel length is 100 mm
- post war mag. from the former Schmeisser factory with 2/1001 code
- very rough finish on the outside
- quite good internal finish of frame and slide
- only Suhler proof marks no other inscriptions or marks

Interesting, eh?

Mark
