Nothing else but serial #1. ? Or I guess there COULD be some other combinations? #101 but then it would be #01? Or #11? But then with only a 2 number serial seems the Germans might use both numbers? Unfortunately I am ignorant of how very short serials were placed? Someone on here knows though.
Dave? Ron? Greg? Ed?

OK! Looks closer, the frame front is plainly marked in the center 1! It is without doubt serial #1. There must be a script Gothic S on the trigger guard..want to see it but it's hard to make out.

Barrel underside shows #1 with a ghost number under it? Possibly a used DWM barrel salvaged by Mauser? Bolt with a #1 too. Back of the toggle train #1

Paul, can you remove the firing pin so we can see what's there?
