I tend to share Dwight's conservative viewpoint. However, if someone was trying to hump/boost it, or the other in the 5000 range (& "q" suffix), why would they not maybe utilize a prefix "b", and have a considerably more valued pistol (and no doubts)?
Imperial Germany was almost considered anal in the regulations, and I can't imagine them not adding the additional date as required. But on the other hand, I'm informed that an estimated 7000 1914 Erfurt P.08's, with prefix reaching into the "a" suffix, have interspersed (serial #'s) with LP.08's that year....that's seems slightly odd, especially from a government arsenal. Is there documentation to validate that?
I guess the bottom line is I've acquired a high priced "shooter".....
