Lurking around on some of the other gunboards I see the word Waffenamts used quite often when describing the inspectors stamps, ie; Eagle/63, E/135, etc. To the best of my recollection a 'waffenamt' ie; WaA135 (Karl Ackva) is only used on accessories such as holsters, cleaning kits and like items and never used on a weapon itself. E/135 is a Mauser inspection stamp whereas WaA135 is used on the holster and has no relationship to Mauser whatsoever. Is my reasoning on this correct?
