Default Fluted firing pin conversion

Hi,

Here are some photos of the original Erfurt-marked firing pins of my 2 Erfurts.

Number 1 (21) is unmodified. 1917 Erfurt P08 with no special markings, other than the standard Erfurt ones.

Number 2 (29) has been converted to the fluted design. The flutes have been milled later, somewhere during the service life of the pistol. It surfaced, untouched since the end of WW2, a while ago. The pistol has been in police service from 1918 - 1945.

Still limited to my phone camera. I will try to take better photos or scans at a later date, if needed.
