Thanks guys, I appreciate you taking the time to look up the info for me. The more I learn about this little pistol, the more I like it. I can't get over how tight the action is for a 70 year old gun. The Germans have their act together when it comes to engineering things.

Before I retired from the Air Force, I was able to visit the Eagles Nest in Germany and I was amazed that they were still using the original elevator that was built inside the mountain. That thing was smooth all the way to the top and I beleive it got its power from a diesel motor. One of these days I hope to get back to Germany.
