Ron:
Thanks for your comments and thoughts regarding the 1/8 inch hole in the rear gripstrap. I couldn't think of any other logical explanation for this modification other than that you have afforded. This particular AE is in relatively good condition, but the bore is dark. It does, however, still show good land and grooves.
Dwight:
Hopefully, your and Ron's data collection will help all of us better understand these interesting variations. With time, your and Ron's efforts will lend some valuable insights and help to unravel some of the mysteries that surround the American Eagle (test) Lugers. Thanks to both of you!!
Best Regards,
Bob
