Re: Dumb question--commercial Nazi guns
Dear Kyrie,
I have to beg your pardon for this slight misunderstanding. When I saw the pix with the "BWB" proof marks I was convinced to see the picture of a "Pistole 21". I didn't know that the original bearer confirmed the story to you.
What made me wonder was the information, that the British Army had her PPK's issued for service in Ulster proved by German authorities and that they didn't receive any "broad arrow" or comparable markings. Why didn't they mark them with British proof marks? Were they issued to the Royal Ulster Constabulary or were they issued to Special Forces of Her Majesties Army like most PPK's in British service? Can you give me some more informations about it?
cheers,
Frank
