Greetings,
I just unpacked a box that I have been anxiously waiting for. It is a 1911 DWM, serial number 399f. If Mr. Still is interested, this serial is above his stated range for 1911. Hopefully this might be a significant bit of information.
Another subject is the proofing. Can anyone shed any light on what kind of proof marks are on this Luger. I have gone to Costanzos' book, Mr. Stills' books and Mr.Kenyons' book and cannot find this proof mark. The closest I can come is a 1934 DWM/Mauser rework. I would think if this would be the case, there would additional marking. Any input will be appreciated.

Mike
