BTW, looking at your 1914 Erfurt toggle assembly, and specifically the rear sight, I notice it has a chamfer on the leading edge of the sight...
Perhaps our Erfurt experts can answer - Is this common/exclusive to Erfurts??? I have five toggle assemblies here, mostly DWM, and none have this chamfer...
I was going to say that if it were mine, I would take a skim cut off the top of the sight to cut away most of the gouges, and then take a shallow cut with a chamfer cutter to restore that chamfer...
Hmmmm???
It'd still be a shooter...But somewhat better looking...
And an additional BTW - The three digit serial number happens every 901 times out of 10,000...(One and two digit numbers the same)...If the suffix goes out to six letters (as an example) then that's 9,010 Lugers with a three digit serial...Not anything special...
...Although a serial of 666 was advertised on GB some time ago as 'rare, special'...
Someone please correct my math...
