DWM 1920 "n" suffix research (Polizei) - Page 3

G2; The inspection stamps are actually ArA4 for Arüstungsamt 4. This office was later renamed Waffenamt 4.

Thanks Don, the mind said that but the finger wouldn’t listen. :-)

Did you receive my email with the two police bayonet markings?

Greg,

The barrel proof is e/ArA4; it, and the weak stamping, are properly characteristic for this pistol. It makes the engraved barrel suffix just that much more of a head-scratcher.

Dwight,

Yep, you are correct on the markings, the brain said that but my fingers didn’t respond. I corrected my post on the Still forum. Thanks.

In case the readers here don’t know there is a multi page thread on this topic on Jan’s Forum.
