The weekend before last I found and bought my first Erfurt at a little gun show in Arizona. It is dated 1917, 99.9% finish, completely mint inside, with two matching magazines, also in mint condition. All this came in a superb light brown 1918 holster stamped on back Kernklager & Cie, 1918, Neu-Ulm, above a crown over L, and clearly stamped inside flap is â??B.A.XIâ?. The grips looked so new I had to take them off before buying the piece to convince myself they were original, and I found them to be crisply stamped with Erfurt proofs and matching numbers. I didn't steal it, but it was a very fair price, especially since I understand minty Erfurts are very scarce, let alone with two matching mags. Just thought I share my pleasure with you all.
