Thank You Dwight. How do you define 'fake'? Who produced these otherwise discernable counterfeits and not just one one but according to you several over a period of time! Each forger having to produce a perfect copy in every other respect, 41 individual machined pieces, some proofed while omitting a simple obvious to all and readily observable 4 digit toe number? Dwight with all due respect, it doesn't make sence! They could reproduce the proofs below exactly but the toe that could have been added so there wouldn't be questioned according to that school of thought! Isn't the luger below the work of D.W.M. and not a someone, some where, some how creating exact 'replicas' decidedly without a single toe tag over a period of years avoiding criminal or civil repercussions to its maker!! There must be better ways to spot a fake, I would think!
