Thanks!!
All,
Thank you for your prompt replies! I am sure I will enjoy the forum, particularly researching my own P-08 which was given to me by my late Father. It is marked 1913 Erfurt and all parts I have seen have the matching serial number. Finish is good on it. Unfortunately, I do not have the holster. I treasure it far beyone its monetary value I am sure. I have field stripped, cleaned and put preservative oil on it and all parts look in fabulous shape. I confess I have actually even fired 15 or 20 rounds and it cycles as well as my Kimber 1911.
My father fought in the Pacific theater and actually traded a relic he brought back from the Pacific to a soldier from the ETO for this P-08. I hope to actually somehow find some facts on it from this forum.
Best regards,
Robert
