Pistol, so faintly as on the first photo? The second photo is showing all Erfurt tools I know to exist. Erfurt tools are coming in the white and have a special shape.
Reckendorf, a German expert, wrote, that the family name of the acceptance officer started with the A. I´m suspect about this theory which is based an German archives. I have all the names of the acceptance officers of Spandau, Erfurt and other gun and rifle factories. But I must say that I´m unable since more than 20 years to bring some light in this thing.
It´s no problem to find something out about the regiments which are stamped into your holster. I will write something about tomorro. Remember me if I should forget it.
The German owner was a Bürgermeister (mayor, oh, yes in my dictionary stand Burgomeister). May be his father was the member of the Bavarian regiment(s) and former owner of the Luger. But if he was born in the early 90`it could have been possible that he was in the Great war and later Bürgermeister in his 50´s.
It would be nice to see better photos of gun and holster.
Best regards Klaus
