What does ERMA stand for?

I totally agree on the DWM vs Erfurt valuation.

Even for the war period 1914-18, I think DWM production outstripped Erfurt production, making Erfurts more rare and, therefore, if in that same or comparable condition, more desirable.

Then there's those wonderful proof marks!

To me, there is a real sense of history with the Erfurts.

An Imperial Arsenal making weapons, with proof stamps galore, for a soon to be fallen Empire. I wax nostalgic (tear in the eye); can you not but here the dimming strands of "Deutschland über alles?"
