Hi,
The reason why I spoke about 'Production lines' in stead of tool sets is that Krieghoff also denied using the Simson tooling, but it did mean that the old line disappeared and was replaced by a new one. The same goes for the Bern/Oberndorf line if the story is correct.
But for completeness sake we can say these are the 3 'original' production lines:
Line one:
DWM -> Mauser (Destroyed after 1947)
Line two:
Erfurt -> Simson -> Krieghoff -> VEB Ernst Thalmann -> Unknown (scrapped or stored?)
Line three:
Bern -> Mauser -> Unknown (scrapped or stored?)
I will not add the luger reproduction variations like the Aimco/Orimar/Stoeger/Erma/etc... to this list (yet).
