Dick et al, What most folks don't realize that all of these makers were produced on only 3 original sets of machinery: DWM machinery went to Mauser in the early 1930s. Erfurt's to Simson in the early 1920s and to Kreighoff by 1935, and probably use postwar by the DDR. The Swiss machinery was modified in 1929 and continued to make parts until 1949 and then sold to Mauser in the late 1960, but soon had to be replaced. TH
