YEP, "all matching" (with overstamp on last # on bbl)

You can spot an overstamp on that small photo?!! Wow. Here I thought the boo-boo on this one was that Erfurt only made artilleries in 1914.

Ron,

It is one of a small lot of 5 that were made as presentation pieces by the Royal Rifle Factory at Erfurt. One was for Pershing, one for Haig, one for Clemenceau, one for Petain and some Austrian corporal was given one.

Ron,

The seller's discription..

"Good bore and action., has an overstamp on the last number under the barrel and the crown RG stamp".

Ron,
Shows my reading ability. I pay more attention to the pictures than the text. Must harken back to my college days and Playboy magazine.
