1914 Erfurt dilemma--SOLVED!

drbuster · 08-24-2002, 09:12 PM

With due respect to Garfield, how can one explain a 1914 dated Erfurt with relieved sear bar, notched chamber and only one proof on the clip? It apparently doesn't fit with the ns,a and b suffix Erfurts, yet is dated 1914. I believe Jan Still's conclusion is right, yet this is only conviction, unprovable with what we know now. This woould also hold for the 1914 "r" suffix Erfurt.
