I am a firm believer that there were Monday mornings and Friday afternoons in Germany. Over the years I have owned 3 Mausers....... 2 military and one Banner .. where the safety bar number was one digit off. One I know was a bring back and it was a complete rig. The others were both in excellent condition and IMO all original to include matching mags.
If I find a gun that is otherwise not messed with something like this would not bother me a lot.
You do get to defend them and perhaps you invite "issues" down the road should you ever decide to sell.
