The plum colored extractor looks weird, but that's not uncommon. It got heat treated a little differently, which resulted in the purplish coloring.

I didn't see any import stamps (GERMANY), which I would have expected.



yeah the correct two digits seems to be "83" but the sideplate has "08"

other than that the serial numbers at least appear correct,

do you have any idea what these markings mean?
