Postie, how do you know I have two Astras? I have never posted the other Astra's picture anywhere. I did have two Astra 900 in the past. Another Astra was a small ring. It's original but the bore was poor. I sold it two years ago.

The one with two screws was indeed nick named "two-screw Zehnlader" in 1920s by Chinese. It's a Spanish copy made by Beistegui Brothers. [Astra 900 was nicknamed as "seven-pin Zehnlader"]
