Luger factory tooling lineage

jeb111 · 12-08-2023, 10:15 AM

I know this has been brought up before but I can’t seem to find any of the past posts. I’m trying to confirm what factories obtained tooling to build Lugers and from what factory they came from. I know Erfurt-Simson-Kreighoff-then to an East German manufacturer. DWM to Mauser and the Vickers tooling was parted out to various manufacturers in Poland. What became of the W+F Bern tooling? This is a pretty simple list and I bet I left out a few things so any clarification would be appreciated.
Thanks again
Jim
