Hi All,
I think I remember reading that the hold open was not on the very early Lugers. If that's correct, when was it added? What S# range and year?
Also, if the frame is cut for a hold open, should you assume it came with one, or is there a transitional period that could have had the frame cut without the hold open? Is there a difference in the date when it was added between commercial and military?
Thanks in advance,
Mike C.
