Well this is about 5 months late BUT...I wanted to send a shout out to the forum and say thank you all for your help. I have gained a lot of knowledge here. You are all very courteous and helpful folks.

Thanks to Ed Tinker for selling me a nice 1918 Erfuhrt at a great deal. Also for pointing me to another forum where I could get an extractor and pin for gramps Star B bring back.

HUGE thanks to Thor for the fantastic restoration and grip fitting. Only took about 8 months and well worth it! (got it back in Sept) It looks new and shoots great!

Doug G. for the group Nill Grip buy. Thanks!!!

and the guy (sorry forgot name) who sold me 2 nice E. German mags at a nice price. They work great!

You guys and this forum Rock!

Here are some pics (I hope) apologies for the crap camera.

And my first magazine. The one a 2 o'clock is the first aimed round, and then I just quick fired the rest. I didn't have hearing protection with, so only did one mag worth. I was only standing about 40 feet away.
