Geo: I am beginning to get excited about this thread. Here we have three Lugers, all within a close serial range, all dated 1914, all are Erfurts. These three include the one I have sent you, the one you have, and the one that Kornmeyer mentioned to me--a 1914 Erfurt, matched mag, with the GK marking. While I don't recall the serial number of the third Erfurt, I DO recall that it was close to my serial of 2446. It would almost seem like a block of 1914 Erfurts was set aside for this paricular pusrpose----to arm cavalry units as war approached. I think you are right about the odds.....
