Newbie - 1917 Erfurt all matching

Hello Luke,

I cannot tell for sure, but it appears your grip screw(s) are not Erfurt proofed. If they are, they would have a similar but smaller version of the Erfurt proofs that appear on the trigger side plate and the take-down lever, and many other small parts on your gun.

I am not sure how much, if any, these grip screws detract from your pistol's value...

Since your pistol has such a family connection, I would personally not worry to much about screws or a renumbered magazine...

Regards,
