Granted there can be wide differences between todays PD's and post 1945 Germany...but still we have no solid proof that this level of maintance was done at any local PD level, we have no proof that they had the capabilitys, tooling or experance. To say that they "may indeed have had the capabilities" is based on what ? I feel that far to many collectors are will to accept that anything other then factory correct/pure..was done at a local level, yet fail to support that with fact...we know that DWM/Simson/BKIW were capable, but at lower levels of repair/maintance what exist to support this...good hunting !
