BTW, the stamp "Gesichert" under the safety lever normally has some type of filler in it, probably some type of laquer, so don't remove it if it is a collectable gun because it is a reduction of it's original condition and lowers the value to collector purists... you can use the greasepencil over this marking and remove it when you are done as indicated above... without removing the original filler and lowering the collector value (if it has any).
