Doubs, Good point, not all Erfurts have the notch but many do. I was not aware that the directive was from 1916.
The rifle and machine gun production point is also well taken. The DWM production increase in 1915 may have been adequate to meet the handgun need with more pressing nees for the heavy and light machine guns. I am wonderfully ignorant of the Erfurt and Spandau production capabilities in that area.
