KRIEGHOFF dated 1937 - opinions requested please

Hi Sergio,
It looks like an authentic Kreighoff to me but I think it may have been refinished. I don't see the E/2 inspection mark on the front of the right frame rail or the ghostly "thumb print" on the back of the frame. I would ask for some internal photographs, starting with the back of the trigger-plate.
Regards, Norm

There is something there...Might be a fragment of an inspection mark...

Beautiful job of re-bluing...Edges are nice and sharp...Other proofs look clear too...
