Need help on ID...

Hello to everyone,

I came across an interesting 4 inch Military type pistol. It is curious to me and I'd like some help on ID...here it goes:

1914 dated ERFURT with a recessed receiver ( slot on top for the Arty sight )

4 inch bbl: SIMSON E/6 Proof on left side & PTV Eagle ( no 29 tech. data ) on right side

Matching pistol with usual ERFURT Proofs & non match Breechblock with Eagle/ Swatiska Firing Proof ( III Reich era )

Reblued EXCEPT receiver ( curious ?? )

NO sear safety & NO Rework Proofs

SE 37 blued rolled mag ( not matching )

Could it be an early Nazi rework or a SIMSON rework?? Or simply a mismatched common shooter

Thank you

kidvett
