When the hold opens were first installed, what, if anything else, was done to the Lugers? I was looking closely at my 08 with low serial without suffix that had hold open added and noticed that there was a proof on the front sight, a small crown over letter and wondered what was done when the pistols were recalled. I also noticed that the witness mark is wider than on my later 1916 and that there is a bit less blue on the barrel on the its ring next to the frame.

Thanks,

Jon
