Re: Barrel Serial Numbers
Bill,
My Double date with the PTV stamp does have the serial number located on the underside of the barrel and it is the original barrel. I would like to quote you from a couple of books concerning the PTV being a stamp from the Berlin Police Armory, but unfortunantly I don't have them with me. If anyone has a copy of Walter's "Luger" book, the stamp is noted there.
I have never heard about the 3 or 4 stamp being stamped on the replacement barrel by Simson. Do you have any reference that I can read about when I get back home. This is very interesting and I would like to get more details.
Marvin
