Jerry - it is indeed a head scratcher - How do you lose a trigger? Definitely all matching inside & out - just the trigger is wrong.

Marc - The stamp is definitely a Crown over gothic "U", in the same place as the Erfurt stamp on my other guns (upper right side of trigger).

I paid $1200, it's really a 93-94% gun. I could probably keep it for $900-$1000, but I'm not sure I want the headache - I'm trying to collect nice complete guns and it doesn't fit my collection.

I just noticed the trigger is not even original condition - it's been sanded and restrawed. It has a little fire blue on a sharp edge (probably got overheated) and the grinding lines are wrong direction from every other one I have.

Bore is shiny and sharp, some pits in grooves only. I will put up pics tomorrow. Would anyone want it for $1000?
