Thanks Thomas, Based on your latest photos I tend to believe the finish on your gun is original. Even though your gun is a DWM it has an Erfurt proof on the receiver (see comparison photos) which is not unheard of. It also has an Erfurt proof on it's takedown lever which is more troubling (see third photo). I would also like to see halos on the barrel serial, but that could be your photos. Anyway, the jury is still out, but I am leaning towards genuine. Regards, Norm
