William, you made it!

There are some experts on here that should be able to help you. I love the Artillery model, have a 1914 Erfurt.

The 3 serial number is acceptable, each year they started over with numbers, there were approx 90,000 long barrel (artillery) and short barrels made that year (serial numbers ran consecutive). Although Jan's lowest serial number recorded is 248, so you have one of the older ones for that year.
