Flaming Bomb Proof...?

Navy · 08-24-2002, 09:26 PM

The so called "Flaming Bomb" proof is a flaming flim-flam. It is a DWM inspection mark, has absolutely NOTHING to do with the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps acceptance stamp and its presence on the magazines and inside the frame well of the Test Eagles is simply because that inspector was "on duty" when the Test Eagles" and many, many more early lugers were manufactured,

Remember, the Test Eagles were standard production guns, pulled from DWM inventory and the production line; they were not a "special" run or produced for the Army's test.

Hope this helps.
