After some research --I'm a noob, and I do not have the reference books*yet*--it looks like the receiver markings are from a Simson rework circa 1930 or so, along with a Waffenamt stamp. Is there any way to determine the manufacturer/date if no such stampings are on the frame? I ask because one of the cough-gurus-cough at the local gun shop said something about markings on the frame of guns made to circumvent Treaty of Versailles restrictions. Is that factual or just more gunstore ninja faux wisdom?
