Collectors - have a favorite?

Hi Brent,

Hard to pick a favorite, but I would have to go with one of these.

My 1917 Erfurt in less than pristine condition. It saw some service.

A very rare anti-aircraft machinegun unit mark. The unit was formed in 1917. Marked after the order to cease marking weapons. These units were small and limited in number. At most, only a few hundred , if that many.

The other, although I have heard from a couple of members who doubt it's authenticity.

Me being the boneheaded stubborn dupe that I am,
will continue to believe it to be authentic until I see documented proof of it being otherwise.

The Feiseler Aircraft factory guard pistol with matching badge.
