Vern,

I think that calling the military officer in charge of sighting-in a "worker" is more of a stretch than the topic allows.

One of these Forums (it may be on Jan Still's Forum) has a profile of an Efrurt made up mostly of parts which are stamped A in place of the usual inspector's stamp, following the marking instructions.

On p.222 of Third Reich Lugers there is a photo of a Mauser S/42 stamped Ã??b ("Ã??bung", Test) over the chamber. It has a very large A stamped on the barrel, clearly suggestive of rejection of the entire pistol.

Fyi do a search on "witness marks" with my name attached.
